How to Make Easy Granola Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1/2 cup water, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup milk (any kind), and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until sugar dissolves.
- In a large bowl, combine 3 cups rolled oats, 1 cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, etc.), 1/2 cup dried fruit (raisins, cranberries, etc.), 1/4 cup seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, etc.), 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional), and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon.
- Pour the warm sugar mixture over the oat mixture and stir until evenly combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared baking dish.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and set. Let cool completely in the pan before cutting.
- Once cooled, cut into bars and enjoy!
