Homemade granola bars.

Ingredients:
  • Medium size mixing bowl
  • Spoon
  • 1 1/2 cups of old fashioned oats ( How are those different from normal oats? -Cora )
  • 1 1/2 cups rice cereal 
  • 1/2 cup roasted, unsalted sunflower seeds
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • medium-size pot
  • 1 cup brown sugar 
  • 1/2 cut honey
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt 
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chocolate chips ( not needed )
  • wax paper 
  • square glass baking pan 
  • Knife

Now, finally we get to the actual cooking.

  1. Put oats, rice cereal, sunflower seeds, and cinnamon in a mixing bowl and stir with a spoon
  2. Combine the brown sugar and honey in a pot.
  3. Heat the mixture on low and stir for 2 mins or until the mixture is smooth.
  4. Mix in oil, salt, and vanilla. Next add the choc chips and stir till the chips have completely melted. Then, turn off the stove. 
  5. When the wet mix in the pot is still warm, pour it into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir until they are combined.
  6. Place a sheet of wax paper into the glass baking pan so that the paper hangs over the sides of the pan.
  7. Pour the mix on top of the wax paper in the glass pan.
  8. Use your hands to press the granola firmly into the pan. Wait a few hours for the granola to completely cool. ( You can put it in the fridge to cool quicker. )
  9. When the granola bars are fully cooled, carefully lift the wax paper out of the glass pan. Then cut the snack into bars or bite size squares.

I hope you enjoy them! I haven’t tried them yet so you can try them for me. 💟❤💛💚💙💜✨💫
