Description
Quinoa and granola, granola bars. Supper healthy, supper delicious!
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cooked Quinoa, Cooled
- 1-¼ cup Granola (I Used Original)
- 1 cup Coarsely Chopped Raw Almonds
- ½ cups Ground Flaxseed
- ¼ teaspoons Salt
- ¾ cups Mini Chocolate Chips Or Dried Pomegranate Seeds, Or A Mix
- ⅓ cups Honey
- ¼ cups Melted Coconut Oil, Lightly Cooled
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Preparation
In a large bowl, combine quinoa, granola, almonds, flaxseed and salt, stirring to mix well. Fold in chocolate chips and/or pomegranate seeds.
Stir in honey, coconut oil and vanilla extract, mixing well with a spoon until combined and entire mixture is moistened. If it still seems too dry, add additional honey 1 tablespoon at a time, but you don’t want it to be too wet.
Line a 9×9 baking dish with plastic wrap or parchment paper. Firmly press the mixture into the pan, into all the corners, and level the top with a spoon. You want it packed as tightly as possible.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, then remove and lift granola bars out of pan, cutting into 12 squares. These work best refrigerated.
