Are you a breakfast person? I am on the weekends for sure. I love a long breakfast mainly a traditional German version. That includes “Brötchen” – little bread rolls that you then stack with yummy cold cuts and cheeses and jams. However during the week I often just have a coffee, followed by a tea and then have lunch at around 1pm. But sometimes a little snack in the morning with the first coffee and the first video call is a nice change. And so we started to stack up on granola bars. Unfortunately many of the store bought granola bars have lots and lots of sugar. So I decided to give homemade granola bars a try. And I was not disappointed at all.

I have to admit I started having them more mornings because they are so yummy. They also work as a little treat in the afternoon when all energy levels are down. Tried that for you. Anyway I really am liking them and have a few ideas how to change up the recipe and adding news things to it. Definitely trying with walnuts. These once here I made without so my friend could eat them. I can also see a blueberry coconut version for the spring and summer. Ahh so many possibilities. But lets not linger on. Here is the recipe…

homemade granola bars spreaded cut

What you need to make homemade granola bars:

  • 1 cup of oats
  • 1/4 cups of seed mixture (mine was linseed, chia and flax)
  • 1/4 cup of cashew butter (or any other nut butter)
  • 1/4 cup of date sirup
  • 1/4 cup of coco chips
  • 1/4 cup chopped cranberries
  • 1 tsp grated avocado seeds
  • 1 tbs vanilla extract

Prepartions for these homemade granola bars are so easy.

  1. Start by mixing all dry ingredients together in a bowl.
  2. Add nut butter and sirup in and stir until it is a gooey mass.
  3. Line a baking pan with baking paper. I just dumped the whole thing on a sheet of baking paper and flattened it so it was all about the same hight. Let it sit and dry.
  4. Cut in small bars.

I stored mine in a plastic container in the fridge for a few days until they were all gone. I am sure they can be stored longer than a week or two but they didn’t last.

Idea. I believe this recipe would also work really well in making little energy balls. I need to try that next time. I could picture something like my cake pop pralines.

You do need a few ingredients but I had so many in my pantry and I needed to clean out a bit so it was the perfect recipe. Have you ever tried to make granola bars? It is much easier then I thought.

Happy mixing

Tobia

    Oh, homemade granola bars… I’ve made granola before, but NOT granola bars. This is such a good idea. I am totally a breakfast person and can see these with a cup of coffee in the morning or as a snack during the day. Thanks so much for sharing the recipe!
