How to Change Up This Recipe

  • Drizzle on top - One of my favorite ways to change up this recipe is to drizzle chocolate sauce, or homemade caramel on top.
  • Go nuts -Not a fan of pecans? Add some dried almonds, peanuts, or even cashew bits to the granola bars.
  • Be fruity- Don't like raisins or cranberries? Feel free to add any other dried fruits. Try dried peaches chopped up, or even chopped dried cherries.
  • Go even sweeter- some mini chocolate chips, or unsweetened coconut will add a whole new dimension of flavor.

How do I freeze these easy granola bars?

You can easily freeze these granola bars by placing them in a freezer friendly baggie or container. Place them in the freezer. You can also wrap them individually before freezing and this will make consuming them on the go even easier.

You can also take these bars on the go with you. Wrap them in wax paper and place them in a baggie or a airtight container. These Fruity Granola Bars travel well, which means you can eat them at any point of the day.
