Granola Bars


I made Granola Bars today, recipe twenty-three. These really were easy, I mixed them up while dinner was in the oven and then baked them while we ate. For my trail mix, I used sliced almonds, cashews, peanuts, craisins, wheat germ, and flax seeds. I also used semi sweet chocolate chips instead of milk chocolate and added a teaspoon of vanilla. I was happy with how these turned out. Not surprisingly, they are way less sweet and salty than store bought granola bars, and they have a nice chewy texture and good flavor. I'm looking forward to trying this again and changing things a bit to find something we really like before writing the recipe down. Maybe I'll add peanut butter...
