Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 2-1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds, roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
  • 1/3 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup peanut butter
  • 1/2 cup dried cranberries, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 cup raisins, coarsely chopped
  • 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a baking sheet with parchment. Spread oats, almonds, and pumpkin seeds on the baking sheet and toast in the oven for 10-12 minutes. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add cranberries and raisins.
  • Warm the honey and peanut butter in a saucepan over low heat, stirring until mixed. Add to the bowl with oats and dried fruit. Mix well to evenly coat all the ingredients.
  • Prepare an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing the paper to extend over the sides. This will help remove the bars from the pan when finished. Spoon the granola bar mixture into the pan and press the mixture very firmly with the back of a spoon or spatula. Refrigerate the bars for a couple of hours or freeze for 20 minutes.
  • Once firm, cut into bars or squares.
  • To store, wrap individual bars or squares with plastic wrap to keep moist and store in the refrigerator.
