Here is how you make Granola Bars-Easy Grab n Go:

tip - measure oil first - then honey - it will pour out easierPreheat oven to 350 degreesLine a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper and grease with the tsp of canola oilIn large bowl mix oats, wheat germ,krispies cereal, dry milk, choc. chips, coconut, cinnamon, and salt. Add canola oil,honey,vanilla, Mix well. Press firmly and evenly into pan packing into corners too. If not pressed firmly bars will crumble when removing. Brush edges liberally and center lightly with the melted butter - it adds flavor as well as helps bars stay together when cutting. Bake for 15- 18 minutes - check occasionally- too little time they are too loose - too much time they are too dry.Let cool slightly then remove from pan still on paper onto flat surface. Let cool a little more - cut while still warm.I wrap in plastic wrap for ease in carrying. Can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze in plastic.I cut into 10 bars - obviously smaller bars would be fewer calories.Serving Size:?1 barNumber of Servings: 10Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GERIPAL.
