No Bake Granola Bars Recipe
Servings: 12
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 c. Rice krispies
- 2 c. Quick cooking oats
- 1/2 c. Raisins
- 1/2 c. Light corn syrup
- 1/2 c. Brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 c. Peanut butter
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1/2 c. Chocolate chips (optional)
Directions
- Here is a recipe for granola bars. I skip the chocolate chips myself.
- Combine cereal, oats and raisins in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the corn syrup and brown sugar to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from heat. Stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract and blend till smooth. Pour this over the cereal mix and mix well. Add in chocolate chips (optional) and mix thoroughly. Press into an ungreased 13 by 9 inch baking dish. Cold. Cut into bars.
- Note: Any type of unsweetened cereal may be used in place of rice cereal
- (but both my mother and I considered the version she made with Cheerios inferior to the Rice Krispies version. Dad disagrees :-). The chocolate chips may be omitted, if you like.
