Granola bars are great for on the go snacks, but they are 1: loaded with sugar and/or 2: expensive!
Here is an awesome recipe that is soooo healthy, protein, fiber, etc. and they are chewy and inexpensive!
Homemade Chewy Granola Bars
In a bowl combine:
- 1/3 cup brown sugar
- 2/3 cup peanut butter
- 3/4 cup honey
- 2 Tbsp. hot water
- 2 tsp. vanilla
Mix then stir in the following:
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/4 cup wheat germ or bran
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds (opt.)
