OAT-FREE AND GLUTEN-FREE GRANOLA BARS (CLEAN EATING)
If you are trying to avoid certain grains and processed sugars, this is an excellent substitute for the traditional granola bar. After trying these, my husband refuses to eat traditional granola bars and begs me to keep them in stock in our freezer. This is also wonderful on top of ice cream or baked apples.

Steps:
- Place 3/4 cups almonds and 3/4 cups sunflower seeds into a food processor; chop until nuts are in 1/4-inch pieces, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from food processor and pour in a bowl. Place the remaining almonds and sunflower seeds into the food processor; roughly chop into larger pieces, about 1 minute. Mix remaining nuts, seeds, shredded coconut, and dried apricot into the 1/4-inch nuts until fruit and nut mixture is combined.
- Combine coconut oil, honey, ground cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt in a sauce pan over medium-low heat; cook until the coconut oil mixture bubbles and turns a lighter color, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Pour coconut oil mixture over the fruit and nut mixture; stir until the granola mixture takes on the consistency of wet sand, about 1 minute.
- Line a baking sheet with waxed paper. Pour granola mixture onto the sheet; place a second sheet of waxed paper on top of the granola mixture. Push down on the waxed paper with you hands until the granola mixture has been evenly spread. Pack tightly to ensure that the granola will not fall apart.
- Cool until granola has hardened, 2 to 3 hours. Cut into bars.

Tips:
- Use quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the granola bars will taste. Look for organic oats, nuts, and seeds, and use pure honey or maple syrup as the sweetener.
- Don't overcook the granola: The granola should be golden brown but not burnt. Keep a close eye on it in the oven, and stir it occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Let the granola cool completely before cutting it into bars: This will help the bars hold their shape and prevent them from crumbling.
- Store the granola bars in an airtight container: This will help them stay fresh for up to 2 weeks.
- Get creative with your ingredients: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making granola bars. Feel free to add your favorite nuts, seeds, fruits, and spices to create a unique and delicious snack.
Conclusion:
Easy homemade granola bars are a delicious and healthy snack that are perfect for on-the-go. They are also a great way to use up leftover oats and other pantry staples. With a little bit of planning, you can make a batch of granola bars in no time at all. So next time you are looking for a healthy and satisfying snack, reach for a homemade granola bar instead of a processed store-bought one.
