Ingredients for Mostly Clean Eating Granola Bars

  • Oatmeal

  • Baking Soda
  • Sea Salt
  • ½ cup unsweetened applesauce

How to Make Mostly Clean Eating Granola Bars

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch jelly roll pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup almond flour, ½ cup chopped nuts (almonds, walnuts, or pecans), ½ cup unsweetened shredded coconut, ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. Add ½ cup unsweetened applesauce and ¼ cup agave nectar (or maple syrup) to the dry ingredients. Mix well until evenly moistened.
  4. Stir in ½ cup white chocolate chips and ½ cup craisins.
  5. Lightly grease your rolling pin or use a clean eating cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  6. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan. Using the rolling pin, firmly press the mixture into an even layer.
  7. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and set.
  8. Let the granola bars cool completely in the pan before cutting.
  9. Once cool, cut into bars using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
  10. Store in airtight freezer bags in the freezer for up to 2 months.

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!
