Perfectly portable, endlessly versatile, and unquestionably crowd-pleasing, this simple recipe for No-Bake Granola Bars will knock your socks off.

INGREDIENTS

Quick-cooking or rolled oats, ground cinnamon, salt, maple syrup or agave, nut-butter, vanilla extract. Optional add-ins: mini chocolate chips, dried fruit, nuts, shredded coconut, sunflower seeds, pepita seeds, and/or chia seeds.

step one

In a large bowl, mix together all of the dry ingredients (oats, cinnamon, and salt).

step two

Add the wet ingredients and any optional ingredients and stir until well incorporated. I decided to add mini chocolate chips, sliced almonds, and hemp seeds to my granola bars.

step three

Transfer the mixture to an 8×8 baking pan lined with parchment paper. Place a piece of parchment paper over top and use the bottom of a glass to pack down the mixture into an even layer.

step four

Refrigerate for 1-2 hours to allow the mixture to set before slicing them into 8 bars.

Storing

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator (for firmer granola bars) or on the countertop (for chewier granola bars) for up to a week.
