No-bake Breakfast Granola Bars
-
-
- Ingredients:
- 2 Cups (200 g) Arrowhead Mills Old Fashion Oats
- ½ Cup (70 g) dried cranberries, fruit juice sweetened
- ¹⁄3 Cup (50 g) raw cocoa nibs
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch sea salt (optional)
- ¹⁄3 Cup (80 ml) coconut oil
- ¹⁄3 Cup (80 ml) honey
- 1 Tablespoon pure vanilla extract
- ¾ cup (200 g) raw, creamy almond butter
-
- Directions:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the oats, cranberries, cocoa nibs and cinnamon.
- Stir well. In a small pot, combine the oil, honey, vanilla extract and almond butter over medium heat. You want to warm this enough to combine the liquids well. But DO NOT BOIL!
- Stir constantly to avoid any simmering. This warmth is strictly to get everything to combine as well as to make it a bit more fluid for mixing with the oats.
- Pour the nut butter into the mixing bowl and mix well to completely coat the oats.
- Press mixture into an oiled or parchment lined baking dish (9 x 4½-inch)
- Freeze for 2 hours. Cut bars with a sharp knife and store in the freezer for up to 2 months, tightly wrapped so no air gets to them.
- Note that by the time lunch time comes around, these will no longer be frozen and will be perfect to eat. (These keep in the fridge for about a week.)
