Homemade Granola Bars

Homemade granola bars was one of the first recipes I tried to make from scratch.  I started with my peanut butter granola bars.  Once I realized how easy homemade granola bars were to make, I felt silly buying them pre-made bars.  This new granola bar recipe is just as easy!

Slow Cooker Coconut Granola Bars

Slow Cooker Coconut Granola Bars.  I love my slow cooker. I try and make as many things in it as possible.  I have made slow cooker soups, slow cooker glazed nuts and slow cooker breakfast quinoa.

However, I had never thought to make cookies or granola bars in the slow cooker!  So when I saw this recipe on Lauren Kelly Nutrition, I knew I just had to try it!  If you haven’t checked out her blog, you should!  Lots of good gluten free recipes.

Pumpkin Granola Bars (Vegan and Gluten Free)

Pumpkin Granola Bars.  Granola bars are so great.  I just love these vegan granola bars.   Not only are they healthy and easy to make, but they travel well and make good snacks when you are on the go.

But let’s face it, the store bought granola bars can not be trusted to be healthy.  Making your own is great because you can control the ingredient and sugar.

After my post for the peanut butter granola bars, there were requests for other flavors.  So naturally I had to try pumpkin granola bar recipe.

 

Pumpkin Granola Bars

 

This recipe is very similar to my pumpkin granola.  These bars are a bit on the soft side because of the pumpkin, but they taste delicious!  They only took minutes to make.

You can make a big batch and freeze some too.  That works great if you get a pumpkin craving in the spring like I sometimes do. 🙂

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350. 
  2. Mix all the dry ingredients together in one bowl. 
  3. Mix wet into another. 
  4. Combine wet to dry really well so all the oats get coated. 
  5. Line a baking pan with parchment paper.  I used an odd sized pan, but an 8X8 or 9X9 pan would work well.  Give yourself enough of the paper so it sticks out the sides.  This will make the bars easier to pull out and cut with a pizza cutter. 
  6. Using the extra paper, press the bars with your palms so they are packed well and evenly flat.
  7. Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes.  Let the bars cool completely before cutting.
