Chewy Granola Bars

Ingredients

3 cups Rolled oats
1 1/2 cups Rice crispy cereal
1 cup Flour
1 tsp Baking soda
1 tsp Vanilla
2/3 cup Butter, softened
1/2 cup Honey
1/3 cup Packed brown sugar
2 cups Mix-ins: mini-chocolate chips, raisins, craisins, white chocolate chips, nuts, peanut butter chips, etc.

Preparation

Preheat oven to 325. Lightly grease cookie sheet size pan. In a large bowl combine all ingredients & mix well. Lightly press mixture into bottom of pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes then cut into bars. Let bars cool completely in pan before removing or serving.

Cook's Notes

You can also add 3 tbsp wheat germ & use wheat flour to make them extra healthy! Don't over bake!!! My favorite mix ins are mini chocolate chips with coconut  or do a oatmeal raisin and add cinnamon.
