    Chocolate Peanut Butter Granola Bars

    May 5, 2016

    Homemade oat-filled granola bars stuffed with walnuts, mini chocolate chips, peanut butter, and honey.

    I’m a big snacker. I mean… snacks all day every day. Okay realistically just when I get home from work, but still, it’s an important fourth meal of the day! And these chocolate peanut butter granola bars are the perfect snack to keep that blood sugar level up at the end of a long work day! (Or especially mid-work day!)

    Snacking is a way of life, and research shows that eating multiple smaller meals every day as opposed to just two or three large meals is actually healthier. But when it’s 4:30 and you just got home and are exhausted, no matter how hard you stare into the refrigerator, a healthy and delicious snack just will not conjure itself up.

    These chocolate peanut butter granola bars are the perfect healthy and tasty snack, and they are simple to take to work if you like to snack while you work too. They are really great because they are high in fiber but low in cholesterol, while still giving you a tasty sugary treat with chocolate chips.

    It’s really simple to make a huge batch of these. They store well in an airtight container on the counter for easy access at home. Or if you prefer a simple grab-and-go solution, you can store individual bars in their own mini Ziploc bags once they have cooled. Then just pop a bag in with your lunch every day to have an extra snack when 3pm rolls around!

    Ingredients
    1. 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
    2. 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped finely
    3. ¼ cup honey
    4. ¼ cup peanut butter
    5. ¼ cup brown sugar
    6. 1 tbsp. unsalted butter
    7. ½ tsp. salt
    8. ½ cup mini chocolate chips
    Instructions
    1. Line a 9x9 baking dish with parchment paper. Heat oven broiler to high.
    2. Add oats and walnuts to a baking sheet. Toast in oven under the broiler for 3-5 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning. Stir occasionally if desired. Remove baking sheet from oven.
    3. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, peanut butter, brown sugar, butter, and salt. Cook, stirring often, until sugar has dissolved completely, about 3-4 minutes.
    4. Heat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Pour oat mixture into the honey and peanut butter mixture. Add chocolate chips and stir until combined. Transfer mixture to lined baking dish and use a spatula to press the mixture down in one even layer. Bake in preheated oven for 20-22 minutes. Remove bars from the oven and allow to cool before cutting into whatever shape you desire (traditional "bar" rectangles or squares). Store in airtight container on the counter.
