Granola Bars

  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 1 ½ cup crispy rice cereal

  • 2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together the oats and cereal.
  • Add the brown sugar, maple syrup, peanut butter, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt to a saucepan.
  • Melt this mixture on low heat, stirring constantly, until it's silky smooth.
  • Pour the sauce over your oats and cereal. Stir well.
  • Stir in the frozen chocolate chips and shredded coconut.
  • Line a 9x9 brownie pan with parchment paper. Pour the granola mix into the lined pan, and press it into an even layer.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 1½ hours.
  • Lift the parchment paper & granola block out of the pan, then carefully cut the block into 12 even rectangular pieces.

  • Pop the cut bars back into the fridge to set, while you melt the other chocolate chips and coconut oil together in a microwave.
  • Dip the bottom of each bar into the chocolate and place on a parchment-lined sheet tray.
  • Add the remaining melted chocolate to a pastry bag or ziplock bag, snip the corner, and drizzle onto the tops of the bars.
  • Set the finished granola bars into the fridge once more to fully set.
  • Store them in the refrigerator in a sealed container. Enjoy!
