Coconut Almond Granola Bars Recipe

Name: Coconut Almond Granola Bars
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 cups old fashioned oatmeal; 1 cup raw almonds, roughly chopped; 1 cup sweetened flaked coconut; 1/2 cup wheat germ; 1/2 cup golden raisins; 1/3 cup dark honey; 1/3 cup organic almond butter; 1/3 cup brown sugar; 2 tablespoons melted butter; 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Servings: persons

1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Line a half sheet pan with a piece of parchment paper. Toss together the oatmeal, almonds and coconut on the baking sheet. Spread the mixture into a single layer and bake for 10 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
3
Reduce oven temperature to 300 degrees.
4
Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine the honey, almond butter, sugar, melted butter and vanilla. Stir to combine.
5
Add wheat germ to the oatmeal mixture and toss with your hands to combine.
6
Add the oatmeal mixture and raisins to the honey mixture and combine thoroughly using a spatula. You may have to work several minutes to evenly coat the oatmeal.
7
Line an 11 x 7 inch baking pan with parchment paper. (Cut the paper so that it fits the dimensions of the bottom of the pan, but hangs over the sides to make it easy to remove.)
8
Pour granola mixture into the pan and press the mixture into an even layer in the pan.
9
Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven to cool for half an hour. Refrigerate in the pan for 2 hours. When you're ready to cut into bars, carefully lift the parchment paper ends and set it on your cutting board. Use a very sharp straight edge chef's knife to make even cuts.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Taste as you go and adjust the seasoning before serving.
Avoid overcrowding the pan — cook in batches if needed for the best texture.
Let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving so the flavors settle.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Swap the honey for maple syrup or agave for a slightly different but equally rich sweetness.
Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
