Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 cup nut butter (such as peanut butter, almond butter, sunflower seed butter, or your favorite; crunchy or creamy)
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil (NOT liquid coconut oil)
  • 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 cup shredded coconut
  • 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Instruction

  • In a medium-large pot set over medium-low heat, melt together nut butter, honey, and coconut oil, stirring until smooth. Remove from stove and stir in oats and coconut.
  • Pour mixture into a 9- by 13-inch baking dish. Spread into an even layer, sprinkle with mini chocolate chips (if using), and firmly press down with the back of a spatula or clean hands.
  • Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm. Slice into squares or bars (I like to cut 3 rows of 4 bars each) and remove from pan. Store granola bars in the refrigerator, either in an airtight container with wax paper separating the layers, or individually wrapped in plastic wrap.
