There's sweetness from the honey, chewiness from the raisins, hints of chocolate and cinnamon, and a bit of crunch. To save a few for later, wrap individual bars and place in a resealable freezer container. When you want a satisfying treat on short notice, just grab one and let it thaw for a few minutes. -Tasha Lehman, Williston, Vermont

HONEY CHIP GRANOLA BARS



Honey Chip Granola Bars image

I first tried these not-too-sweet bars at my mother-in-law's house. A marshmallow, honey and peanut butter mixture is delicious over crunchy cereal, oats and nuts. Be sure to let the bars cool a bit before pressing the mini chocolate chips on top or they'll melt. -RosAnna Troyer Millersburg, Ohio

CHOCOLATE CHIP GRANOLA BARS



Chocolate Chip Granola Bars image

This recipe originates from the Whole Foods Market website. After a few tries, I tweaked the recipe slightly. Now these granola bars are a family favorite, and I feel good about feeding them the wholesome treat. Use organic ingredients if you can! (Preparation time includes toasting and cooling the oats.)

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h20m

Yield 16 bars, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups quick-cooking oats
1/3 cup light olive oil
2/3 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip
1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Spread oats onto an un-greased cookie sheet and bake for 15 minutes, stirring a couple of times.
  • Mix oil, honey and vanilla in a large bowl.
  • Add cooled oats, chocolate chips and nuts (if using) and mix well. (Note: If the oats are still warm at all, the chocolate chips will melt.).
  • Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper and mist with oil.
  • Spread the mixture evenly onto the parchment.
  • Lay a sheet of waxed paper over the mixture and press to compact. (I use the palms of my hands to start, and then I use the bottom of a drinking glass to make the surface as smooth as possible.).
  • Remove the waxed paper and use a rubber spatula to press in any of the oats that may have "straggled" up the sides of the dish.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Cool completely and lift parchment from the dish.
  • Cut into 16 bars.

HONEY SPICED GRANOLA BARS



Honey Spiced Granola Bars image

A recipe I twiddled and tweaked to come up with. It has a distinct taste of honey, and the spices are allowed to shine through. Sometimes, I add some cocoa powder for that subtle taste. Hope you like this, its one of the first recipes I managed to really tweak up nicely.
