Chunky Monkey PB Granola Bars
Chunky Monkey PB Granola Bars are chewy and full of good for you ingredients like oatmeal, honey, peanut butter, and dark chocolate.
Ingredients
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 cup dark chocolate chunks/chips
- 3 cups oats
- 1 cup dried banana chips
- 1/2 cup roasted salted pepitas
Instructions
- Combine peanut butter, honey, and olive oil in a large stockpot over low heat. Stir until they are all melted together and remove from heat.
- Add chocolate chunks, oats, dried banana chips, and pepitas and stir until everything is combined.
- Line a 9 x 13 baking pan with parchment paper. * I leave enough paper to pull the granola mix up out of the pan which makes cutting into bars so much easier.
- Spread the granola mixture evenly into the pan. I used a piece of parchment paper to press the mixture down with my hands.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least an hour or until firm enough to cut into bars.
- Granola bars are chewy and slightly sticky. I usually either line a storage container with wax or parchment paper or wrap each bar individually and then stack into the container. Either way works and prevents them from sticking together.
- The recipe makes 14 bars or more depending on what size you cut them!
