Ingredients
- 2 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup Almond butter
- 0.5 cup Maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.75 cup Dairy-free chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Chia seeds
- 0.5 cup Natural unsweetened applesauce
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving enough overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the almond butter, maple syrup, applesauce, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until smooth and creamy.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, mix together the rolled oats, chia seeds, and salt.
Step 4
Pour the dry oat mixture into the wet ingredients and stir well until combined and all the oats are coated.
Step 5
Fold in the dairy-free chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to press it evenly into the pan, ensuring it is tightly packed together.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the edges turn golden brown.
Step 8
Remove from the oven and let the granola cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. This prevents them from crumbling when cut.
Step 9
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan and cut them into 12 bars with a sharp knife.
Step 10
Store the granola bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
