Granola Bars

I get from the co-op Bountiful Baskets a granola mixture that is wonderful. The first time "tried" to make granola bars with it, it did not come out the way I wanted, they didn't hold together very well. So I decided to try again and see if I could improve on my mistakes I made the previous time. It worked out wonderful this time which I am really happy about because they make for an easy and yummy breakfast.

Tools:

Cookie Sheet
Medium Sauce Pan
Measuring Cups
Spatula

Ingredients:

2lbs Granola Mixture
1/2C Peanut Butter
2Tbs Honey
1/2C Brown Sugar
2Tbs Water
8Tbs Butter
Crisco

Directions:

Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Grease the cookie sheet with the Crisco or use parchment paper. In medium sauce pan combine butter, water, sugar, peanut butter, and honey together. Stir until sugar is dissolved and butter is completely melted.

On cookie sheet spread out granola mixture over it. Pour sauce over the granola and mix the granola until sauce coats all of it.



 Bake for 20 minutes then let completely cool then cut into the size you would like.
