CHEWY VEGAN GRANOLA BARS

I started experimenting with making my own granola bars because the store-bought bars were too sugary. I wanted a mildly sweet, vegan, chewy granola bar that doesn't crumble and this is it! As you can see, the ingredients are flexible to adapt to your taste, and as long as you don't exceed the amounts and press the mixture well into the pan, you'll have a yummy snack that doesn't fall apart! The sweetness comes from the dried fruit and brown rice syrup, which makes this recipe unique among others that use additional brown or white sugar and butter.

Chewy Granola Bars Vegan, Gluten Free, Egg Free, Dairy Free image

I have modified recipe #20184 to fit into our allergen free diet. Everyone loves these!! These are free of milk, egg, gluten, corn, soy and so ON!! Sorry about missing changing the directions. I have been tweaking the recipe. Everything should be correct now. You WILL have to read labels to be sure that the items you buy are allergen free. This recipe is quite forgiving but using regular rice flour helps them to stick together.

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 cup raw sugar (or brown sugar)
1/3 cup spectrum non-hydrogenated shortening (or vegan margarine)

1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup crispy rice cereal (organic brown rice cereal is CORN FREE)
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1/2 cup semisweet vegan chocolate chips (Enjoy Life Brand are free of corn, milk, soy, gluten, etc)
1 3/4 cups rolled oats (gluten free)

Tips:

  • Use a variety of oats. This will give your granola bars a more complex flavor and texture. You can use old-fashioned oats, quick oats, or a combination of both.
  • Don't overcook the oats. If you do, they will become mushy and your granola bars will be too soft.
  • Use a natural sweetener. This will help to keep your granola bars healthy and nutritious. You can use honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar.
  • Add some nuts and seeds. This will give your granola bars a boost of protein and healthy fats. You can use almonds, walnuts, pecans, chia seeds, or flax seeds.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment. There are many different ways to make vegan granola bars. Try different combinations of ingredients until you find a recipe that you love.
