INGREDIENTS:
• 3 cups rolled oats (not instant)
• 2 tablespoons cinnamon
• ½-cup melted coconut oil (or canola oil)
• ¼-cup honey
• ½-cup unsweetened applesauce
• 1-½ cups add-ins (chocolate chips, nuts, dried fruit, seeds, shredded coconut, chia seeds)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix oats and cinnamon in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, stir together
wet ingredients. Pour wet ingredients over oats and stir well to coat. Stir in desired add-in ingredients.
Pour mixture into a 9 inch X 13 inch baking pan lined with parchment paper or lightly greased foil.
Using a small piece of parchment paper, press the mixture into the baking pan making sure it is the
same thickness. It is very important that you press ingredients firmly together. (If not, you will have a
tasty granola snack instead of granola bars.)
Bake for 15-25 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool
completely. Remove the parchment paper (or foil) and cut into about 16 pieces. Wrap individually
and store in an air tight container. This recipe is easily doubled.
