Granola Bars - that don't taste like cardboard!


Ingredients:
1 & 1/2 stick unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup date sugar or coconut sugar (or any sugar you prefer)
1 & 1/2 cups uncooked oats (I used Bob's Red Mill)
1 cup flour of your choice (I used 1/2 oat flour & 1/2 "regular")
2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 cup each of unsweetened coconut, pecans, chocolate chips)

What to do:
Mix the melted butter with the sugar and vanilla.
Add oats and flour, mix until a dough forms - it may be crumbly and that's okay.
In an 8x8 or 9x13 pan, press down most of the dough, reserving some for top crumbles.
Sprinkle the chocolate chips, pecans and coconut on top.
Add the remaining reserves in globs on top of this.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 24 minutes.

*I used dark chocolate chips because they have less sugar content.*
