Easy No Bake Granola Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Stir oats, peanut butter, flaxseed, honey, cranberries, chocolate chips, and almonds together in a bowl; press into a 9x11-inch baking dish, using the back of a spatula to press into a flat layer.
• Refrigerate mixture at least 1 hour.
• Cut into 12 bars and wrap each individually in plastic wrap for storage.

Steps:

• Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Mix rolled oats, steel-cut oats, rice cereal, dried fruit, and almonds together in a large bowl.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; add brown sugar, honey, and vanilla extract. Whisk until sugar is completely dissolved, about 2 minutes. Pour over oat mixture; stir to combine.
• Spread oat mixture into prepared baking dish. Press chocolate chips into top. Refrigerate until chilled, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• Spray a large cookie sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine oats, cereal, raisins and coconut. Stir.
• In a separate, microwave safe bowl, combine the peanut butter, sugar and corn syrup.
• Microwave on high 2 minute and stir. Microwave another 1-2 minute until mixture boils and sugar dissolves. Stir in vanilla.
• Pour the sauce over the dry ingredients and mix well. Allow it to cool long enough to not melt the chocolate chips, then stir them in also.
• Turn out onto the cookie sheet. Wet your hands under cold water and press into the pan.
• Cut into bars. They can be eaten immediately, but they will set up more as they cool. Store in an airtight container.
• Variations: Can use 2 cups each of Cheerios, Rice Krispies, and Corn Flakes instead of 6 cups crisp rice cereal. This is a nice taste variation but it is more crumbly.
