• ⅛ teaspoon salt
• ½ cup shredded coconut
• 2 cups rolled oats
• ½ cup honey
• 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch square baking dish. Spread oats and coconut evenly across a baking sheet.

Step 2

Toast oats and coconut in the preheated oven until browned, about 10 minutes; transfer to a large mixing bowl.

Step 3

Mix honey, peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook and stir until smooth. Pour honey mixture over oats and coconut; stir to coat; spread mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.

Step 4

Bake in the preheated oven until beginning to dry, about 15 minutes for crunchy granola bars, less if you like them chewy. Cool completely before cutting.
