Tips:
- Use a variety of oats. This will give your granola bars a more complex flavor and texture. You can use old-fashioned oats, quick-cooking oats, or even steel-cut oats.
- Add your favorite mix-ins. This is a great way to customize your granola bars and make them your own. Some popular mix-ins include dried fruit, nuts, seeds, and chocolate chips.
- Don't over-bake your granola bars. They should be golden brown and slightly chewy, but not hard or dry.
- Let your granola bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape better.
- Store your granola bars in an airtight container at room temperature. They will keep for up to 2 weeks.
