Description

Ingredients

• 2 cups Old Fashioned Oats
• 1/2 cup Dried Cranberries
• 1/2 cup Pumpkin Seeds
• 1/2 cup Almond Flour
• 1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1/4 cup Honey
• 1/2 cup Corn Syrup Or Brown Rice Syrup
• 4 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350ºF. Butter an 8x8 pan or line with parchment paper. In a large bowl, stir to combine oats, cranberries, pumpkin seeds, almond flour, cinnamon, and salt. Set aside. In a small saucepan, bring honey, corn syrup, and butter to a boil over medium high heat, then cook for 3 minutes. Remove from heat and pour all over the oat mixture. Press into an 8x8 pan, compacting very well. Bake for 20 minutes until slightly golden on the edges. Flip the granola square out of the pan and let cool on a flat surface. Cut into bars and enjoy! Recipe note: The amount of wet ingredients used is the bare minimum for holding together. You may find you like to double the wet ingredients for a more sticky and sweet bar. Storage: The granola bars will keep for 4–5 days at room temperature.
