I made these yesterday and they are delicious! I didn’t have any peanut butter chips so I just added a few tablespoons of peanut butter in with the wet ingredients and it worked fine. I was a little unsure about the cinnamon, but it really adds a nice subtle flavoring. Thanks for the recipe!

These are great, and so easy to make! I put chocolate chips, dried cranberries, and sliced almonds in mine because that’s what I had in my pantry. Thanks!

I’ve made these granola bars several times now and my husband and I both love them! I never have peanut butter chips on hand so I just up the amount of chocolate chips in the recipe a little and it turns out fantastic!

We loved these! I’ve made them a few times now and made changes based on what we had – subbed coconut oil for the canola oil, used white chocolate chips and coconut, and added in a little peanut butter to the wet mixture. I also cut the brown sugar to 1/4 cup with no noticeable difference. Delicious, thanks for a great recipe!

Winner! These were great and I felt much better eating these than the processed stuff from the grocery store. Thanks so much…can’t wait to play around with the ingredients!

I made these exactly as written (I just doubled the chocolate chips since I didn’t have peanut butter chips) and they turned out really nicely, though they didn’t look at all like your picture — or like granola bars for that matter. They’re more like bar cookies. They have that exact same consistency, look, and taste. They’re still delicious, but I wouldn’t call them granola bars.

My kids loved them! I subbed raisens for the PB chips – delicious! This is the first homemade granola bar that my kids have liked, and they held together very nicely.

These turned out great! I couldn’t find any wheat germ, but subbing with flour seemed to work fine. I also ended up replacing the peanut butter chips with random nuts from the pantry, but it was still delicious.
Updated to add: I’ve made these several times now, tweaking the recipe each time. My favorite so far uses 2 1/2 cups oats and only 1/2 cup flour, with chopped pecans substituted for the peanut butter chips. It bakes a bit flatter and to me seems more granola bar-like than cookie-ish.

Delicious! Made one batch with the chips and slivered almonds and another with raisins, extra cinnamon and walnuts. I underbaked the raisin batch – but it turned out to be a lucky accident… because the bars taste just like oatmeal raisin cookie dough! YUM. Thanks for sharing this recipe : )

very good recipe-thanks! Made just as is, with mini choc. chips and a few M and M’s.
Easy to double and make 2 -9x13s at the same time.
Cut and froze single bars in small snack ziploc baggies.
Perfect for a quick breakfast on the go or the mighty deer hunter in the family.;)
Will try nuts and dried fruits or just raisins when freezer supply is empty.
