Description
Made with wholesome, simple, pantry essential ingredients! Great for kids or adults!
Ingredients
- 4-½ Tablespoons Unsalted Butter
- 3-½ Tablespoons Honey
- 3 Tablespoons Coconut Sugar Or Brown Sugar
- 2-¼ teaspoons Molasses
- 1-½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract
- 1-¾ cup Plus 2 Tablespoons Quick Cooking Oats (not Old Fashioned)
- ¾ cups Kashi Go Lean Crunch Cereal, Broken Into Small Pieces Or Clumps
- ¼ teaspoons (heaped) Salt
- 2 Tablespoons Mini Chocolate Chips
Preparation
Line the bottom of an 8-inch pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
In a large pot, bring butter, honey, coconut sugar and molasses on high heat. Once boiling, boil until it just begins to thicken, about 45 seconds to 1 minute.
Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla until well mixed. Finally, stir in all remaining ingredients except chocolate chips, until everything is coated.
Press mixture very firmly into the prepared pan (I find using slightly damp hands works super well) and then sprinkle with the chips, lightly packing them in. Cover and refrigerate until firm, about 1–2 hours.
Slice and devour!
Notes:
• You could probably use any granola-type cereal here, but I haven’t tried so can’t confirm.
• Bars are good right out of the fridge, but I like them best after they’ve been at room temperature for a bit as they are nice and chewy! Store in an airtight container in the fridge though.
