Ingredients
  • -4 cups old fashioned oats (Gluten-Free if needed)
  • -1 cup honey (use agave for vegan)
  • -3/4 cup natural peanut butter
  • -1/2 cup peanuts
  • -optional, 3 T TriMix (1 T Wheat Germ, 1 T Wheat Bran, 1 T Oat Bran) omit for G-F
  • -optional, 1 T ground flax seed
  • -optional, 1/4 cup peanut butter or chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Grease the bottom and sides 9x13 pan well.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Combine all ingredients VERY well in a bowl. Use an electric mixer if possible like a Kitchen Aid Mixer.
  4. Mash the granola bars into the pan well. This is the most important step!! If you don't mash it, they won't hold together well. We use a potato masher to solidify this peanut butter goodness.
  5. Bake for 18 minutes or until the edges barely start browning.
  6. Cool for 10 minutes, and cut into bars.
  7. Store in a cool dry place for up to a month.
