These DIY Chewy Chocolate Chip Granola Bars are super easy to make and take only 15 minutes of prep time! Plus they make 12 bars! I like to individually wrap each one in a snack bag for a grab and go breakfast or snack.
OUR LATEST RECIPES
The first thing I do when making these bars is to toast the oats, pecans and almonds in the oven for a couple of minutes until golden brown and nutty. Next I melt butter, honey, brown sugar, vanilla and salt in a small saucepan. I toss the honey mixture with the oats and chocolate chips then press into a 9 x 9 pan.
I like to refrigerate these for 2 hours to firm. The bars can be stored in the fridge for up to a week!
