Granola bars are a great snack on hand when you're on the go or need a quick energy boost. Unfortunately, store-bought granola bars can be loaded with sugar and artificial ingredients, making them less than ideal for a healthy diet. That's where my Dehydrated Apple and Cinnamon Granola Bars recipe comes in - it's easy to make, uses all-natural ingredients, and is packed with flavor and nutrients.
The star of this recipe is the dehydrated apple slices. Dehydrating apples removes the water content and concentrates the nutrients, making them a great source of fiber and vitamins. Plus, they add a delicious crunch and sweetness to the granola bars.
To make these granola bars, start by combining rolled oats, chopped dehydrated apple slices, sliced almonds, and pumpkin seeds in a large mixing bowl. In a separate microwave-safe bowl, gently heat a mixture of honey, peanut butter, coconut oil, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until smooth. Stir the ingredients together until smooth. Pour the honey mixture over the oat mixture and stir until everything is well coated. Transfer the mixture to a baking dish and press it down firmly with a spatula. Bake for 15-20 minutes, then let cool and cut into bars.
The result is a delicious and nutritious snack that's perfect for any time of day. These Dehydrated Apple and Cinnamon Granola Bars are high in fiber, healthy fats, and protein, making them a filling and satisfying snack that will keep you going until your next meal. Plus, they're easy to make and can be stored in an airtight container or frozen for later.
