VEGAN GRANOLA BAR RECIPE 2 WAYS | OIL & GLUTEN FREE | DTube Recipe Video

in #food7 years ago (edited)


Probably my favourite snack recipe of all time! These are perfect as a “meal prep” snack for school or work. Prep a bunch, store them in the freezer and take them on the go! These bars are also super versatile and you can really play around with the flavours! These are my favourite three.

001 Easy Granola Bars.jpg

INGREDIENTS:
( makes between 4-6 bars)
BASE:
1 cup rolled oats (use certified GF oats to make this recipe GF)
1/2 cup puffed rice
2 heaping cups of medjool dates (pitted)
1/4 cup peanut butter (sub sunflower seed butter to make nut free)
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/2 tsp vanilla
Pinch of salt

TRAIL MIX:
Handful of chopped almonds
3 Tbsp. dried cranberries
3 Tbsp. pumpkin seeds
1/2 Tbsp. each hemp hearts & chia seeds

PB & J:
2 handfuls of chopped peanuts (mixed into the base) (optional)
2 Tbsp. of peanut butter (to top with)
Raspberry chia jam (to top with)

Raspberry Jam:
1 cup frozen or fresh raspberries
1 tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp chia seeds

-Add berries and syrup to a pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil, add the chia seeds and turn heat down to low. Stir every so often until most of the water has evaporated. Allow to cool for a few minutes before spreading onto bars.

INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Blend dates in food processor or blender until they form a smooth paste/dough like texture.
  • Add the peanut butter and maple syrup into a saucepan. Heat on low and stir until well combined (5-7 minutes).
  • Add the rolled oats, rice puffs, peanut butter mixture, and dates into a large bowl and mix.
  • Add in your extras for flavor and mix until well combined.
  • Spread out your mixture in a baking pan lined with parchment paper. - Flatten/spread until your desired thickness.
  • Add on any toppings, and set into the freezer for 15-20 minutes.
  • Cut into bars and serve!

Tip: I store these bars in an airtight container in the freezer! They last forever! I also eat them right out of the freezer and they taste like a frozen treat!
