Cranberry Almond Granola Bars

There are plenty of granola bar options at the grocery store, but they're also easy (and often healthier) to make at home. Feel free to vary the add-ins to your taste, swapping 2 cups of any combination of small (or chopped) dried fruit, nuts, seeds and/or chocolate chips for the dried cranberries and nuts in this version. We tested several sticky sweeteners, including maple syrup and honey, but found brown rice syrup held the bars together the best.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

  • 1 cup crispy brown rice cereal

  • 1 cup dried cranberries

  • ½ cup almonds, toasted and chopped

  • ½ cup pecans, toasted and chopped

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ⅔ cup brown rice syrup or light corn syrup

  • ½ cup smooth almond butter

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
