Granola Bar Recipes - Made Easy!

Basic/Original Granola Bites Recipe

Preheat oven to 350F. Spray or lightly grease mini-muffin pan (or use 8 x 8 baking pan for bars).

What you need:

• 2 heaping tbsp honey*
• 8 tbsp unsalted butter
• 1-2 tbsp warm water
• One box M&J's Granola Bites Baking Mix

*tip: before measuring honey, spray the baking spoon or coat with oil so the honey glides off instead of sticking to the spoon!

In a microwave safe bowl, melt honey and butter.

Add melted honey/butter and 1 tbsp water to Granola Bite mix. Blend until moist and uniform.

Drop by tablespoons into mini-muffin tin (or press mixture into 8x8 pan). Bake for 10-12 min (or 15 - 18 min if using an 8x8 pan).

Traditional Granola Bars with extra Oats (Chewy or Crunchy)

A chewy or crunchy granola bar that you make fresh at home. Customize with extra nuts or dried fruit. Dip in chocolate or add a swirl of icing. These keep for several weeks in an airtight container, and kids will love them!

Preheat oven to 350 F

Spray or lightly grease 9 x 13 pan

Melt in Microwave:

• 4 tbsp butter
• 1/3 cup honey (or Karo syrup)
• One box M&J's Granola Bites Baking Mix

Add an extra 1/2 cup rolled oats to M&Js Granola Bite mix and blend well. Add melted butter/honey to mixture and blend until moist and uniform (using clean hands to ensure mixture is fully blended) add an extra 1-2 tbsp water as necessary. With clean hands press mixture gently into 9x13 pan, the layer will be thin (to make it easier, moisten hands with water).

For Chewy Granola bars: Bake for 15-17 min. Let cool for 5 min and cut into bars while still warm (for easy cutting), then let cool completely before removing from pan.

For Crunchy Granola bars: Bake for 15-17 min. Let cool for 5 min and cut into bars, carefully place the warm bars on a cookie sheet and place back in the oven (at 350) for another 5-8 min (until darker brown). Bars will still be soft out of the oven, but once they are cooled will be nice and crunchy!

Blend into Granola Bite Mix until moist and uniform. With clean hands press mixture gently into 9x13 pan, the layer will be thin (to make it easier, moisten hands with water).

Bake for 14 min. Let cool completely, cut into bars and enjoy!!
