Sweet And Salty Granola Bars

I am so excited to finally get the courage to make granola bars from scratch. It’s the kind of snack I always think about doing but have always been afraid to try out. To be honest, these Sweet And Salty Granola Bars took me 2 tries to get it just right.

My first grader needs to bring a lunchbox to school every day. As we roll around into February, she’s getting bored of the same old snacks I pack for her.

So I thought, why not put together her favorite items into one chewy bar? And that’s how these Sweet And Salty Granola Bars were born. The sweetness comes from the honey, cranberries, and dates. The saltiness comes from pretzels. Ingenious isn’t it?

Now that I made these delicious bars I can’t wait to combine different ingredients and make different flavor combinations with granola.

To start, all you need are Rolled oats, cranberries, almonds, Goldfish crackers, dates, honey, vanilla, and peanut butter. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl and heat the wet ingredients in a small saucepan. Pour the wet into the dry and mix well.

After everything is mixed, just pour the entire granola into a pan and press well. You may need some elbow grease to compact the entire mixture evenly inside the square pan. Don’t worry, that counts as your exercise for the day.

I chill it in the fridge for an hour and then cut it into bars. If you’d like, you can cut it into squares as well. I love how easily you can see pieces of almonds, cranberries, and pretzel pieces. It’s the perfect kid-friendly snack for the lunchbox, especially for picky children like mine.
