OK! So I just made them. They were a total hit with the hubs and son, and the texture was perfect. I personally prefer something that is not quite so sweet, so I might tinker with the sugar (which, admittedly was regular sugar, which is what I had in the cupboard today) and maybe add a pinch of salt.

Thanks again – I am really pleased to have a snack option to send in my son’s school lunch that I feel good about.

I NEED TO MAKE THEEEEEESE! Thanks for sharing this recipe. I just discovered Kind Bars, but I’m really trying to avoid canola, so I think I’m resigned to making my own (“resigned” is probably not the word – I’m actually kind of excited to try this!).

In reply to Kristi. Yes you can swap syrup and honey for sure!

Could you use maple syrup instead of honey? Then you might not need the sugar also…what all would you adjust?

Love the idea of a candy thermometer! Going to need to go out and get one.

Made these tonight! Wonderful. 1 change. They were too dry, so I turned the stove back on and added a few TBS of coconut oil, a few TBS of Honey and a little shake of Palm Sugar. Brought it back up to Temp and then added it. They are chewy and absolutely delicious! It’s like a carmely, no-bake, chocolate bar. Yum!

I use a similar recipe but skip the 1/2 cup of sugar altogether and use coconut oil instead of butter. The honey is enough to sweeten the granola just enough…adding coconut palm sugar would make it way to sweet for my taste buds. Even though these are still healthier than any store bought granola bar……keep in mind that honey has a high glycemic index so these bars should be eaten in moderation.

2 1/4 *cups* of oats, I assume? 😉

These look terrific!
