Granola is one of the most healthiest options for breakfast or evening snack and can also be also had as a healthy dessert.But it is difficult to eat them on the go and hence granola bars are always a better option.I love munching granola bars for my morning or evening snack as they are easy to carry and are very healthy and filling too.
Me and my husband both love dry fruits very much and hence I added them abundantly in my granola bars,you can add the dry fruit/nuts of your choice.I can say it is always better to make these granola bars at home instead of buying those preservative and sugar loaded ready made bars.It might hardly take some extra time but the end product is very healthy and yummy bar and more importantly it is customized by you according to your preferences.
I had bookmarked this recipe from Veggie-Wiz as they looked damn tempting with all my favorite ingredients and adapted the process of stove top method and few measurements from Sharmi's space.This recipe is a cross in between both the recipes and is my favorite now with the ingredients of my choice,so do try them out with your additions and choices.
