Chewy Peanut Butter Granola Bars

November 12, 2014 By Cassie

Chewy Peanut Butter Granola Bars | Handful of Raspberries

These bars are my new favorite snack food. They are absolutely delicious – perfectly crispy, sweet, and peanut buttery. I’ve probably had an average of 3 of these per day for the past few days. I’ve been having them for breakfast in the morning, taking them to class for a mid-afternoon snack, and I may have had some for dessert a few times. So, these are pretty much good any time of day for any reason.

These bars are great because they only take about 5 minutes to make and they are really versatile. Feel free to sub any seeds for the sunflower seeds or any nut butter for the peanut butter (creamy and chunky will both work. Almost any liquid sweetener could be used in place of the brown rice syrup. Also, if coconut is not really your thing, you can take it out.
