Good For You Granola Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees with rack in center position. Line a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with parchment and lightly oil.
• In a large bowl, toss together the oats, coconut, almonds, sesame seeds, salt, and dried fruit. Separately whisk together the oil, honey, 1/3 cup water, vanilla, and egg whites; stir into the oat mixture.
• Spread the granola in the baking dish and pack firmly. Bake for one hour, or until golden on top and along the edges. Cool completely.
• Remove cooled granola to a cutting board. Cut in half lengthwise, and then cut crosswise into 1 1/2-inch-wide bars. Store in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2. Mix the oil, maple syrup, honey and vanilla in a large bowl. Tip in all the remaining ingredients, except the dried fruit and coconut, and mix well.
• Tip the granola onto two baking sheets and spread evenly. Bake for 15 mins, then mix in the coconut and dried fruit, and bake for 10-15 mins more. Remove and scrape onto a flat tray to cool. Serve with cold milk or yogurt. The granola can be stored in an airtight container for up to a month.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish.
• Spread the oats and coconut evenly across a baking sheet.
• Toast oats and coconut in preheated oven until browned, about 10 minutes; transfer to a large mixing bowl.
• Mix honey, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until smooth. Pour the honey mixture over the oats and coconut; stir to coat. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in preheated oven until beginning to dry, about 15 minutes for crunchy granola bars, less if you like them chewy. Cool completely before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Combine all ingredients except the dried fruits.
• Spread onto baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes, until the granola along the edges of the sheet starts to toast.
• Use a spatula to move the toasted granola away from the edge and re-spread the mix in the pan.
• Bake for another 8-10 minutes, or until toasted to your taste.
• Add dried fruit.
