Granola Bars

These are so yummy. I love making granola and granola bars at home because I can control the quality of the ingredients and the balance of sweetness.

This is totally a customizable recipe. My personal favorite mix-ins are dried cranberries, finely chopped almonds and white chocolate-semi sweet swirled chips. But you can use whatever you like- raisins, dark chocolate, pecans, macadamia nuts, white chocolate....

Preheat oven to 275

2 eggs
3/4 cup canola oil
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vanilla
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1 pinch nutmeg
1 1/2 cup whole wheat flour
3 cups rolled oats
1 1/2 cup mix ins

Combine eggs, oil, honey, sugars, salt, vanilla, cinnamon and nutmeg. Mix in flour. Stir in oats and mix ins.

Spread dough into a parchment paper (or aluminum foil) lined 13x9 pan. The easiest way to press the dough in is to wet your fingers with a little tap water and spread it around. Bake for 45 minutes on the top rack.

Allow to cool completely before cutting.
