How To Make granola bars

Step 1

Optional other ingredients: your choice of desired fruits/nuts/chocolate chips. I usually go with 1/2 of the optional ingredients.

Step 2

9x9 glass pan greased for thicker bars. a cake pan or small cookie sheet can also be used for thinner bars.
Step 3

mix all dry ingredients together thoroughly prior to adding liquids. press into pan.I use saran or a plastic wrap to get a smooth top.
Step 4

Bake at 325 for 22-25 minutes Cut after cooling and wrap in saran to keep fresh or place in individual snack bags.
