How to Make Absolutely Fabulous Granola Bars
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with tin foil, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Lightly grease the foil with cooking spray or butter.
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients until thoroughly mixed.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs attached.
- Carefully remove the pan from the oven and let it cool slightly (about 10 minutes).
- Using the foil overhang, lift the granola bars out of the pan and place them on a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, remove the foil and cut into bars. Wrap individually for easy grab-and-go snacks or breakfasts.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
