These Chocolate Chip Granola Bars are made with old-fashioned rolled oats and, of course, chocolate! Pack them in lunch boxes, or save them for an after school snack!

Ingredients

4 c. old-fashioned rolled oats
¼ c. whole wheat flour
½ c. shredded unsweetened coconut I only had sweetened on hand, so that’s what I used.
⅓ c. packed brown sugar
1 tsp. cinnamon not in the original recipe, but my family loves it!
½ tsp. kosher salt
1 c. chocolate chips or raisins or other dried fruit
½ c. canola oil
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
½ c. honey

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325° F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine the oats, flour, coconut, brown sugar, cinnamon, salt, and chocolate chips. Stir to combine.
In a small bowl, whisk together the canola oil, vanilla, and honey. Pour wet ingredients over the oats mixture and stir well to combine. Spread on the prepared cookie sheet and shape it into a 9” x 13” rectangle, about 1” thick. Bake for about 40 minutes, or until golden and dry to the touch.
Cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes, then cut into desired size bars with a serrated knife. Wrap individually in parchment paper or wax paper.
