Healthy Granola Bars

These granola bars are easy to make and are made without any artificial colouring or sugar. These are the healthy replacement of sugar-laden store-bought granola bars. If you don't want to cut it into bars, use it as muesli or granola. Have this with a bowl of yoghurt and fresh fruit, and you are ready for the day.

Ingredients-

Rolled oats -1 ½ cups

Puffed rice-½ cups

¼ cup -Roasted Almonds

¼ cup -sunflower seeds

¼ cup of cranberries

¼ cup of honey

1 tablespoon of flax seeds or sesame seeds

Peanut butter or almond butter-¼ cup

Dates -1 cup

¼ cup honey

Method-

Dry roast oats and puffed rice.

In a food processor, crush dates.

I have used salted almonds and sunflower seeds, so I did not use any salt separately.

Now in a pan, add everything together. Don't cook it, just warm it to mix nicely.

Take a baking tray or sheet pan and butter/oil it.

Spread the mixture around.

With the help of your hand or back of the spoon ,set it tightly.

Keep it on the counter table for 3 hours. If you want it quick, keep it in the fridge for at least an hour.

Cut it with a sharp knife to form your desired shape.

You can store it for a week at room temperature.

Enjoy!!!
