Simple chewy chocolate chip granola bar to rival any store bought bar. Jam packed with whole grains and a delicious hint of honey. Easily made vegan using agave syrup or maple syrup and Earth Balance butter.
1. Line a 7×5 Pyrex dish with parchment paper letting the parchment hang over the edges of the pan for easy removal (if doubling the recipe use an 8×8 pan).
2. In a medium-sized bowl combine the oats, cereal, and cinnamon. Set aside.
3. In a small saucepan melt the butter, brown sugar, and honey over medium low heat until it reaches a low boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes. Do not walk away and make sure that you stir constantly to prevent the mixture from burning.
4. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.
5. Pour the sugar mixture over the oats. Mix until everything is evenly coated.
6. Transfer the granola into the pan and press down hard to pack it in there. Try placing another piece of parchment paper or wax paper on top and press down hard with the heel of your hands. You really want to pack this in tight!
7. Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips on top of the granola and gently press in with damp hands or a spoon. If you use your hands you get to lick melted chocolate off, which is always yummy..
8. Let the granola cool at room temperature for a couple hours or in the fridge if you are impatient like me.
9. Using the edges of the parchment paper, lift the granola bar slab out of the pan. Cut into 4-5 bars using a sharp knife or pizza cutter.
10. Store in an airtight container for up to one week.
