Money-Saving Recipe! | Homemade Healthy Granola Bars {Crispy or Chewy}

Stop wasting money on store bought bars and make this healthy granola bar recipe instead! Clean, simple ingredients like oats, peanut butter, and honey. Less than $.50 per bar, high fiber, low sugar, and great for kids and adults! ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️ CLICK FOR RECIPE ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️
✅HEALTHY GRANOLA BARS INGREDIENTS:
➤2 c old-fashioned rolled oats
➤3/4 c roughly chopped nuts like almonds, walnuts, pecans, peanuts or a mix
➤1/4 c sunflower seeds or pepitas or additional chopped nuts
➤1/4 c unsweetened coconut flakes
➤1/2 c honey
➤1/3 c creamy peanut butter
➤2 tsp pure vanilla extract
➤1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
➤1/4 tsp kosher salt
➤1/3 c mini chocolate chips or dried fruit or nuts
✅HEALTHY GRANOLA BARS DIRECTIONS:
1. Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Line an 8- or 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper so that two sides of the paper overhang the sides like handles. Coat generously with nonstick spray.
2. Spread the oats, nuts, sunflower seeds, and coconut flakes on a rimmed, ungreased baking sheet. Toast in the oven until the coconut looks lightly golden and the nuts are toasted and fragrant, about 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
3. Meanwhile, heat the honey and peanut butter together in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the mixture is smoothly combined. Remove from the heat. Stir in the vanilla, cinnamon, and salt.
4. As soon as the oat mixture is finished toasting, carefully transfer it to the pan with the peanut butter. With a rubber spatula, stir to combine. Let cool for 5 minutes, then add the chocolate chips (if you add the chocolate chips immediately, they will melt).
5. Scoop the batter into the prepared pan. With the back of a spatula, press the bars into a single layer (you also can place a sheet of plastic wrap against the surface to deter sticking, then use your fingers; discard the plastic prior to baking).
6. Bake the healthy granola bars for 15 to 20 minutes: 20 minutes will yield crunchier bars; at 15 they will be slightly chewier. With the bars still in the pan, press a knife down into the pan to cut into bars of your desired size (be sure to pick a knife that will not damage your pan-I typically cut into 2 rows of 5). Do not remove the bars. Let them cool completely in the pan.
7. Once the bars have cooled completely, use the parchment to lift them onto a cutting board. Use a sharp knife to cut the bars again in the same place, going over your lines to separate. Pull apart and enjoy!

I'm going to be so glad when YouTubbers discover that putting music under an instructional video is annoying, distracting and stupid.

[@Lisa58999]

I totally agree and I don't understand why it's taking so long

[@EightWardJade]

Best comment 😂!!

[@loverofHS]

Very annoying indeed!

[@fiveft12]

Yep. Not watching because of this.

[@minimalistknitter]

Well stated, they just will not listen,

Best granola bar recipe on KZbin. Me and my wife make these on bi weekly basis.

[@lydiasullivan578]

soooooo yummy

[@CookingMuseum]

so delicious food

[@cmbooks2000]

Recently I've decided to include meal replacement bars into my diet. The ingredients are shocking, because we all assume these bars, which in all honesty don't always taste so good, are healthy. I found your channel and I appreciate it so much. I already make my own granola. I'll now make my own bars. Thank you!

[@dewnara]

Yummy I will try your recipe

[@mariusjacobsen6667]

Great recipe. Here’s a trick to get laser straight cuts: freeze the whole tray until almost frozen, then flip the entire thing onto a cutting board and cut with a large kitchen knife (guillotine style). Perfect bars

[@terrym.2264]

It is really hard to listen when the music is so loud. I would eliminate the music. You have a nice voice and your instructions are precise.

[@eroticmasterbaker]

Great!

[@celes9358]

Las acabo de hacer y son riquísimas!! y justo tenía todos los ingredientes!! Hasta coco fileteado. Thank you 🤩

[@ashforbes6152]

Hi! These look amazing! Can’t wait to try them. What do you think the calorie content would be for a bar here?

[@pegpickering]

I just made these for the first time and they are excellent! I need to cut down on sugar and salt for my health. I eliminated the salt and they still are delicious!

[@selimcelik8716]

Glad you like them!

[@skyisthelimit9897]

This women needs her own television show! Liked and subscribed

[@GagandeepSingh-vb2sb]

Hey no offense but i think heating honey is not a good option here .....

[@markb4106]

Looks great! Can I substitute blackstrap molasses for the honey? Also old fashioned whole grain oats instead rolled oats? Thanks for any input! 😁

[@davidmorris6278]

I made these today, so looking forward to trying them! Only problem was I forgot to take them out of the oven. Cinders! Can't wait to try again tomorrow 😢😢😢

[@jagrutigandhi5789]

Since I found this recipe about 2 months ago I have made these at least 8 times. They are delicious and easy to make and perfect with my morning coffee

[@sonyam83]

What is the best way to store them after you make them?

[@pudthechud]

What's the best way to store these? Fridge? Or just a sealed container on the counter?

[@ushanayak9182]

This definitely looks yum... will try it soon... wanted to know if we could replace peanut butter with normal butter

[@bhonemyatthu2081]

I love the recipe. I will surely make it at the weekend. How many days can we keep it in package.?

[@margiegonzalez6576]

I need the ingredients, how much

[@rms5993]

Going to try this with fresh blueberries, and reduce the amount of nuts.

[@dorawell4752]

Tip wet your parchment paper same for paper towels in the microwave the towel stays moist and no mess in the microwave lol❤

[@saira5476]

I make a it’s very yummy

[@lindsaymcdonald58]

These look so easy and yummy. Can't wait to try, thanks for sharing!

[@WellPlated]

You are so welcome! Hope you enjoy them, Lindsay.

[@ingridbiancasulochanarajah9862]

Hi since I don’t have rolled oats can I replace it with fine process oats instead to make this concoction yah?☺️😬👍🏼

[@mdshakib-me4rt]

Wow

[@Mr.Steve-O]

these look awesome, can you freeze them?

[@jojow8416]

This recipe looks amazing. Is it possible to use maple syrup rather than honey? I love the combination of cranberries and orange so I will add some dehydrated powdered organic orange rind.

[@9parasqn656]

Step 6 you say bake the bars for 15 - 20 minutes. At what temperature please. Great video, looks fantastic.

[@montaniasaah8139]

I'm on my fourth batch of making these bars, which just hits the spot after a yoga workout. So much yumminess!

[@kusumamcm8253]

Shelf life of the bars?

[@wchinner]

Hi, thanks for sharing this recipe. What is the oven temperature please?

[@sharoneh8929]

Thanks so much for this recipe. I made the granola bars today 3.18.23; and my mom loves them. Now I can eat oats in a healthy way. I don't like oatmeal; so this is great for me. So delicious and yummy. I added chocolate sprinkles to this recipe.

[@WellPlated]

Thanks for sharing!

[@emaneldahrawy8679]

Hello from Egypt 👋 I have made this receipe so many times. I go often hiking with my friends and every time I make a really big batch for all of them and they love them. Thank you very much🙏❤️

[@WellPlated]

Thanks for sharing! So glad you enjoy!

[@TFloski_81]

Today was my second time making this using my own homemade peanut butter and it is just delicious. I love it, my sister and mom love it, my wife and her sister love it and they are from Ivory Coast/West Africa so they don’t eat bull crap but they eat this healthy snack up. Great recipe!

[@gog4167]

I love bull crap. The secret is to toast it in the oven at 325F for 10-15 minutes. It makes all the difference in the world!

[@bonnienichalson5151]

Music is not a needful part of utube channel:) clear instructions yes

[@ShabZay]

Thank you for such a wonderful recipe ❤! How long can you store them ? T.I.A

[@JojoRose695]

Thanks for the recipe I’ve made these for my two three year olds they won’t eat anything wet so here’s hoping I can get them to eat these added loads of nuts and seeds and more peanut butter than honey fingers crossed it’s a winner😊

[@WellPlated]

You are so welcome! Hope you and they enjoy!

[@richabisht7309]

amazing healthy bars i just loved them really keep on sharing such more and more recipes and a lot of love from planet ayurveda thanks a lot

[@WellPlated]

Glad you enjoyed them!

[@shag5880]

Super great and super easy recipe .plz tell can we substitute honey with dates and how much.😘😘😘😘👌👌👌👌.plz do reply.

[@ummahmedca]

I made tonight following exactly. I cooked 23 min bcz I wanted them crunchier. My bars after cooking were on the crumbly side and barely hold together. They're very delicate and break into pieces really easily. I'm thinking it may have needed more honey/peanut butter to bind it together? Or less oats/nuts. Do u think making it again using a bit more honey/PB will help bind them more?

[@venitamangra7832]

Hi, I absolutely love your granola bar is that amount of honey healthy for you? Is that OK for someone who is type two diabetes? Will that make your sugar level rise? Is there a substitute for honey?

[@christinewarner8160]

I’ve made these four times now and they are delicious. One batch was made with maple syrup as I wanted them vegan but they didn’t hold together.. my problem is I can’t stop eating them!
