I am always looking for healthy, “real food” snacks for Hudson ( ok… and me 🙂 So I asked my “gluten free/ wheat free” friend Lindsey if she had an new fun recipes. She recommended this is one. It is SO quick and easy to make and is a great alternative to store bought, junk bars!
Granola Bars
2015-06-24 23:52:23
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup of honey
- 2/3 cup of peanut butter
- 1 cup of oats (I used Bob's Red Mill GF rolled oats)
- 2 cups of rice krispy cereal (gluten free and low sugar)
- raisins (however many you desire)
- ( I finely chopped a 1/2 cup of trail mix... yum! the nuts and hint of chocolate you can't go wrong with!)
Instructions
- Put the honey in a medium size pot and put it on low heat. Stir constantly.
- You want it to thin out and be melty but not to boil.
- When it gets to that point you can add in the peanut butter. Stir this until it gets really smooth.
- At that point turn of the heat and stir in your oats and rice cereal.
- Add the raisins or whatever dried fruit you would like.
- After everything is stirred together, lay out some parchment paper, dump everything out and form into a square.
- Let them harden up a little bit, cut them, put them in a storage container and put them in the refrigerator.
