Granola bars are known to many as a grab-and-go breakfast, but they also make a terrific anytime snack. Feel free to vary the add-ins (or leave them out completely) to suit your taste and avoid allergens. Choose organic, unsweetened puffed rice cereal.

Steps

1
Done

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

2
Done

Spread the oats on the baking sheet and bake them for 5 minutes. Stir the oats, then bake them for 5 minutes longer (for a total of 10 minutes), until they are lightly golden and fragrant.

3
Done

While the oats are toasting, combine the puffed rice cereal, flaxseed meal, salt, and cinnamon in a large mixing bowl.

4
Done

In a small saucepan, melt the shortening, sugar, and honey together over low heat. Add the vanilla and stir until the mixture is smooth.

5
Done

After the oats are toasted, reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (165°C). Line a 9 by 12-inch (23 by 30 cm) baking dish with parchment paper. Spray a thin coat of oil on the parchment, using a mister.

6
Done

Add the toasted oats to the dry ingredients. Add the melted ingredients and stir until all of the oats are coated.

7
Done

Stir in the raisins (if desired) and chocolate chips (if desired). Note that some of the chocolate will melt.

8
Done

Spread the mixture into the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to work it to the edges of the pan and pat it down. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes.

9
Done

Let the granola cool for 10 minutes in the pan, then lift the granola (with the parchment paper) and transfer it to a cooling rack. Let it cool for at least 2 hours before cutting it into bars. Store granola bars at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
