granola bars

Healthy homemade granola bars that are gluten-free and paleo friendly! Have fun switching up the nuts and seeds for different variations.

Trail Mix Granola Bars

nuts (almonds, cashews, pecans, walnuts, etc)

coconut

cranberries

pepitas

chia seeds

sea salt

maple syrup

vanilla extract

Preheat

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees fahrenheit and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.

Stir

Add all of the nuts, seeds, dried fruit and salt to a mixing bowl and give it a stir.

In a separate small bowl, stir together the vanilla extract and maple syrup. Pour this on top of the nuts and stir everything together, until it&#039;s well coated.

Pour

Pour the mixture into the baking pan and use the back of a large spoon or spatula to flatten it into one layer.

Bake

Bake for 30-35 minutes, then cool for one hour in the pan.

Cool &amp; Slice

Once the granola bars are fully cooled, slice them into bars. I slice then entire portion in half, then divide each half into six bars, for 12 total granola bars.

These Keto Granola Bars are soft and chewy and made with no oats or flour. They&#x27;re grain-free, sugar-free and are the perfect portable healthy snacks for on the go.

Keto Granola Bars

drippy almond butter

coconut oil

golden monk fruit sweetener

cinnamon

Himalayan sea salt

egg (, beaten)

coconut (, we

almonds

pecans (OR chopped walnuts)

sunflower seeds

hemp seeds (, optional)

water (, as needed)

chocolate

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line an 8 x 8 baking dish with parchment paper sling for easier removal. Set aside.

In a large pot, add the almond butter, coconut oil, monk fruit sweetener over medium heat, while stirring frequently until the sweetener has dissolved. Remove pot from heat and allow mixture to cool down for 2 minutes.

Whisk in cinnamon, salt, vanilla and beaten egg.

Stir in flaked coconut, sliced almonds, chopped pecans, sunflower seeds and hemp seeds until combined. If mixture seems too dry, add 1 Tablespoon of water, or a little bit more as needed to help bind.

Transfer mixture into prepared pan while pressing down very firmly and flattening with a spatula until tight and compressed. Sprinkle with chocolate chips, if using.

Bake in preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, until edges are slightly brown.

Remove pan from oven and allow to cool completely (I like to place the pan in the freezer so the bars set quicker). Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to transfer the uncut bars to a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, cut into even rectangles. Bars can be stored in an airtight container or resealable bags in the freezer for up to 3 months.

How To Make Keto Granola Bars

These pumpkin chocolate chip oatmeal bars are soft and chewy with satisfying pumpkin flavor. Using a food processor or blender to break down the oats (step 2) ensures the bars hold their shape. I don't recommend any ingredient substitutions other than those listed in the recipe &amp; recipe notes.

Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Bars

(240 grams) old-fashioned whole oats or quick oats (not instant)*

baking powder

pumpkin pie spice*

salt

(56 grams) unsweetened applesauce*

(80 milliliters) melted coconut oil

(80 milliliters) pure maple syrup

(45 grams) coconut sugar (or packed light or dark brown sugar)

Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line the bottom and sides of an 8-inch or 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the bars out (makes cutting easier!). Set aside.

Pulse the oats in a food processor or blender until they’re slightly broken up. (For whole oats, about 10 pulses. For quick oats, about 5-6 pulses.) Pour into a large bowl and add the remaining ingredients. With a rubber spatula or large spoon, stir together until combined. Mixture/dough will be very heavy and thick.

Spoon mixture into prepared pan. Using the back of a flat spatula or a spoon, spread and press it tightly down into the pan. Make sure it’s flat and very compact, which helps guarantee the bars hold their shape. Dot a few chocolate chips into the top&#8211; this is optional and only for looks! I usually use about 1-2 Tablespoons on top.

Bake for 25-28 minutes or until the edges are very lightly browned and the center appears set. Avoid over-baking, which dries the bars out.

Remove from the oven and cool in the pan at room temperature for 30-60 minutes. After that, place the pan in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours until chilled.

Remove bars from the pan using the overhang on the sides then cut into squares.

Cover leftover bars tightly and store at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to 10 days.

I just made these today.   Really,really nice .   Well liked by the family.  I didn’t have maple syrup so used liquid honey.  I will definitely make these again.    I see what you mean by pulsing the oats.    Nice texture .

Made these exactly as written except I doubled the recipe &amp; used eggs as I didn't have apple sauce. Very yummy but a little bland, I would add more spices next time. Overall, simple and healthy and a great way to receive the health benefits of pumpkin without the pumpkin flavour being overwhelming (in fact, the pumpkin is barely detectable).

Sally, this recipe is absolutely fantastic! You’re so amazing at what you do.

Will you please come out with a no bake pumpkin cheesecake recipe? That would be amazing

Tried these for the first time yesterday and they came out perfectly!  I've never made oatmeal bars before, and really enjoyed pulsing down the oats in the food processor.  The rest of the process was so easy to assemble and bake.  They taste healthy yet still indulgent enough to satisfy.  And bring on ALL the pumpkin this time of year haha :)

Super easy to make and delicious! This one is definitely a keeper :)

Delicious!  Just the healthy treat I needed!  I added cinnamon chips, dark chocolate and pumpkin seeds.  The pumpkin seeds added a great crunch.  Not lacking in flavor but I do use Vietnamese cinnamon.  I didn’t have coconut sugar so I used maple sugar.  Anytime someone is coming to your house to visit, bake these!  The house smelled sooo good for ages!

So delicious! Followed recipe exactly. Flavorful and moist. Love how fast this went into the oven!

Love, love, love these! I used sugar-free chocolate chips and Lakanto monk fruit sweetener instead of the sugar. I still used maple syrup because nothing can sub for pure maple syrup.  I highly recommend making these. Follow the instructions and they will be beautiful and so yummy!

Just made these today, so delicious! Great recipe, thank you!

So good! Had to sneak a taste before putting them in the fridge and I wasn't sorry!

This is probably one of my favorite recipes now!!

Love love love! 
I followed this recipe exactly -- except I swapped coconut sugar for light brown sugar.
These are such a simple, delish, guilt free autumn snack. While they were in the oven we could smell the delicious spices -- yumm!

I was all set to make these. Started getting ingredients out on the counter. And then I realized that I didn’t have old-fashioned oats... only instant oats and steel-cut oats. But, I decided to press on and use a mix of 160g steel cut oats and 80g instant oats (I did not pulse these).

The bars turned out great — the steel cut oats give them a nice chewy texture. Everybody in the family enjoyed them!

Loved it! Made this for family, friends, and coworkers. Rave reviews and I was asked for the recipe. Thanks Sally!!

My Homemade Granola Bars recipe results in the perfect portable snack packed with flavor, crunch, and chew — with no mystery ingredients.

Homemade Granola Bars Recipe

(3 ounces 85 grams) butter, (melted)

(4 ounces 115 grams) honey

brown sugar

(9 ounces 255 grams) rolled oats

(1 ½oz/43 grams) coconut, (shredded and unsweetened)

(2 ½oz/71 grams) dried cranberries, (or raisins

(2 ½oz/71 grams) almonds, (chopped)

bittersweet chocolate, (melted)

Pre-heat your oven to 350°F (180°C), then line a 9 x 12 inch baking tray with parchment, set aside.

In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, combine the butter, honey, maple syrup, brown sugar, and cinnamon.

Allow to simmer until the sugar has dissolved and a dark syrup has formed.&nbsp;

Remove from the heat and fold in the oats, salt, coconut, dried cranberries and almonds. Using a spatula, continue to fold everything together until evenly coated in the syrup.

Transfer the oat mixture to the prepared baking tray and press down using your spatula into one evenly packed layer.

Bake the granola bars for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown and toasted on top.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool to room temperature before lifting the whole sheet out of the tray.

Cut them in 1 1/2 x 4 inch bars. This will yield 18.

Dip the bottom half of each bar in melted chocolate then allow to set, chocolate side up, on a rack. If your bars do not set up after 30 minutes to an hour, place them in the fridge until the chocolate has hardened.&nbsp;

Once the chocolate has set, use the additional melted chocolate to drizzle over the top for garnish. Once the chocolate drizzle has set, enjoy!

Cover and store the granola bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. They can also be kept in the freezer for longer.&nbsp;

Homemade Granola Bars

Try an oat bar with a difference - our version is flavoured with coconut and has a soft and spicy ginger topping

Ginger flapjacks

butter,

light muscovado sugar

golden syrup

porridge oat

whole oats

plain flour

desiccated coconut

butter

icing sugar

ginger

few chunks crystallised ginger, diced

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Butter and line a 20-21cm square baking tin with baking parchment. Gently melt together the butter, sugar and syrup in a large pan. Tip in the oats, flour and coconut, and mix well. Press the mixture into the tin to flatten evenly. Bake for 30 mins until golden and crisping.

To make the icing, put the butter, icing sugar, syrup and ground ginger in a small pan and heat gently, stirring, until all melted together. Pour straight over the flapjacks, scatter with the diced ginger and cool in the tin.

Healthy, no-bake granola bars with just 5 ingredients and a sweet, crunchy texture. Peanut butter and maple syrup complement each other perfectly in this ideal portable breakfast or snack.

Healthy 5-Ingredient Granola Bars

dates ((pitted // deglet noor

peanut butter or almond butter

roasted unsalted almonds

rolled oats ((gluten-free for GF eaters))

Chocolate chips, dried fruit, nuts, banana chips, vanilla, etc. ((optional additions))

Process dates in a food processor until small bits remain (about 1 minute). It should form a "dough" like consistency. (Mine rolled into a ball.)

Optional step: Toast your oats (and almonds if raw) in a 350-degree F (176 C) oven for 10-15 minutes or until slightly golden brown. Otherwise, leave them raw - I prefer the toasted flavor.

Place oats, almonds and dates in a large mixing bowl - set aside.

Warm maple syrup (or agave or honey) and peanut butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir and pour over oat mixture and then mix, breaking up the dates to disperse throughout.

Once thoroughly mixed, transfer to an 8x8-inch baking dish or other small pan lined with plastic wrap or parchment paper so they lift out easily. (A loaf pan might work, but will yield thicker bars // adjust size of pan if altering batch size).

Press down firmly until uniformly flattened - I use something flat, like a drinking glass, to press down and really pack the bars, which helps them hold together better.

Cover with parchment or plastic wrap, and let firm up in fridge or freezer for 15-20 minutes.

Remove bars from pan and chop into 10 even bars (or 9 squares // as original recipe is written). Store in an airtight container for up to a few days. I kept mine in the freezer to keep them extra fresh, but it isn't necessary.

Healthy 5-Ingredient Granola Bars | Minimalist Baker Recipes

The base recipe for 8 easy homemade granola bar recipes that come together in a snap. Variations include peanut butter chocolate, M&amp;M, Sweet and Salty, and more!

Base Granola Bar Recipe

old fashioned rolled oats

nuts, roughly chopped

honey

unsalted butter

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a 9-inch square baking dish with parchment or foil and lightly spray with cooking spray.

Place the oats and nuts on a rimmed baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly toasted.

While the oats are toasting, add the honey, butter, and brown sugar to a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves, stirring constantly. Let the mixture bubble, while stirring, for 1 minute and then remove from the heat.

Stir in the vanilla and salt to the butter mixture. Pour this mixture over the oat and nut mixture and stir to combine. Add any extra ingredients (except for chocolate) and stir to combine. Make sure none of the oats are dry.

If you are adding chocolate, wait about 15 minutes for the mixture to cool a bit before adding the chocolate and then stirring to combine.

Place all of the oat mixture in the prepared pan. Use a rubber spatula or the bottom of a greased measuring cup to press the mixture into the pan. Press it in very firmly, this is what makes the bars stick together.

Chill the granola bars for at least 2 hours. Lift the bars from the pan using the edges of the foil or parchment and place them on a cutting board. Cut into desired shape/sizes and serve.

Store in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 10 days. If you are stacking the granola bars place a piece of parchment between the layers to help prevent sticking.

5 ingredients are all you need to make a batch of these easy Homemade Peanut Butter Granola Bars. These homemade granola bars are gluten-free, soft-baked, studded with chocolate chips, and perfect for healthy snaking. You'll never buy store-bought granola bars again!

chocolate chips

eggs egg

Optional add ins: walnuts, pecans, almond, chia seed, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds or dried fruit

Preheat oven to 350℉. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well.

Bake for 14-17 minutes or until center is baked through. Start checking at 12 minutes as all ovens are different.

These really are amazing-I would highly recommend using grease proof paper, it makes an already easy process even easier.

Hi! I would love to see if there’s an opportunity for us to work together. I’m the northeast sales manager for over easy breakfast bars and I enjoyed reading your article on homemade granola bars. Would love to hear from you!

Have made several batches of these bars now and love how easy they are to come together and quick to bake 👍 They taste just great with the five ingredients and I've also made some with added chopped dates and walnuts, great healthier snack😋

Mine turned out soft and chewy but with a slightly rubbery taste. I am not sure what I did wrong. I put in regular peanut butter, choc chips, eggs, oats the old-fashioned kind, and maple syrup. Maybe because I warmed up the peanut butter and maple syrup?

5 ingredients is all you need to make a batch of these easy Homemade Peanut Butter Granola Bars. They’re gluten-free, soft-baked, studded with chocolate chips, and perfect for healthy snacking. You’ll never need or want to buy a store-bought granola bar again!

Simple, 6-ingredient bars that are tender, chewy, and so easy to make. Chocolate chips and almond butter make these bars irresistible without any of the guilt.

Chocolate Chip Almond Butter Granola Bars

dates ((pitted))

almond butter ((if unsalted, add a healthy pinch sea salt))

raw nuts ((such as pecans and almonds))

rolled oats ((GF for gluten-free eaters))

OPTIONAL: Toast oats in a 350-degree F (176 C) oven for 15 minutes to give a toasted flavor. Not necessary but recommended.

Place dates in a food processor and mix until small bits remain and they form a ball. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and add oats, nuts, and chocolate chips. Stir with a wooden spoon, breaking down the dates so they disperse fairly evenly throughout the ingredients. Small chunks are OK.

Warm honey and almond butter in a small saucepan and pour over dry ingredients. Stir quickly to evenly coat. The chocolate chips will get a little melty - that's fine and even desirable.

Transfer to a shallow pan (such as 8x8 or loaf pan) lined with parchment or plastic wrap and top with another piece of plastic wrap and use your hands to form the mixture into a tight square (keeping in mind you want them about 1/2 thick and you'll cut them into 10-12 bars // amount as original recipe is written) with a uniformly flat top. This will take a little work but the warmth of your hands will work well to shape them.

Still covered, pop them into the freezer to set for 15 minutes. Remove and cut into 10 bars (as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). Store in an airtight container or bag in the fridge to keep fresh, or in the freezer for longer term storage.

These homemade granola bars are a quick and delicious, and naturally gluten-free! If you want to change the mix-ins, see the post above for my tips on how to do it. These are on the sweet side, if you&#x27;re looking for a less-sweet treat, try these Energy Balls.
