Granola Bars 2

By Jill-4

Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1/4 cup white chocolate chips (Optional: any Dried Fruit, Raisins, Craisins, Nuts, Chocolate Chips, Coconut Flakes, have fun with this!)
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 cup coconut oil (Melted! I microwave about 30 seconds until liquid, this makes it MUCH easier to work with!)
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Preparation

Step 1

STEP 1: Preheat oven to 350. Grease a 9×13 baking dish.
STEP 2: Mix together dry ingredients, then make a well in the center and add the honey, beaten egg, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well. Pat the mixture evenly into the baking dish.
STEP 3: Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are beginning to turn golden. (I did 30 because we like them softer.) Cool for 5 minutes and then cut into bars and remove from dish WHILE STILL WARM. Otherwise, you'll have to chip it out with a chisel. But then I suppose you could use crumbled pieces for ice cream topping. So, if that's your goal, go ahead and let it cool as long as you wish. ;o)
