Granola Bars
Ingredients:
1 Cup peanut, almond, or cashew butter
1/2 Cup honey
1 Teaspoon vanilla extractSprinkle of sea salt
1 Cup hemp hearts (shelled hemp seeds)
1.5 Cups organic oats
1/3 Cup mini chocolate chips
Pumpkin seeds, optional
Mix together all ingredients in a large mixing bowl.
Different nut butters have different consistencies… If the mixture seems too wet, add some more oats. If it seems too dry, add more nut butter.
Press into a 8x8 pan lined with parchment paper (for easy cleaning/removal). Press down firmly with a spatula to make the granola bars stick well.
Refrigerate for at least an hour and slice into granola bars. Store in the refrigerator.
*These freeze well if you want to meal prep, double the recipe, make in a 9x13 pan and freeze half.
