Simple Quick Granola Bars(No-Bake)
Simple Quick Healthy Granola Bars(No-Bake) with healthy mix-ins is an easy bar to make it in just few minutes.
Equipment
electric mixer grinder
Mixing bowl
silicon spatula
Ingredients
- 1½ cup Cooking Oats or Rolled Oats
- ½ cup Almonds
- ¼ cup Pistachios
- ¼ cup Walnuts
- ½ cup Dried Cranberries
- ½ cup Black current
- 1 cup Dates Pitted
- ¾ teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients and line parchment paper in a slightly deep tray or you can use baking tray too.
- In an electric mixer grinder pulse almonds, pistachios and walnuts to chunky coarse powder and add to Oats.
- Likewise blitz Black current and dried cranberries and add to the Oats mixture.
- Mix the Oats mixture with the spatula until everything is evenly mixed.
- Finally, grind pitted dates to smooth fine paste as this date paste is the sweetener and as well binding agent for the Granola Bars.
- Add the date paste to the oats nut fruit mixture and mix with a spatula. And for the flavour, I added vanilla extract and mixed well. Granola mixture is ready to transfer to a lined baking tray.
- Transfer the Granola mixture to a parchment lined tin and level the Granola mixture with a flat base ladle and chill it for 2 to 3 hours. I chilled for 3 hours and the bars came out perfectly even size.
- Remove from Refrigerator and cut into slices and serve for breakfast or as a snack. Store in an airtight container on the kitchen counter for a week or refrigerate for longer shelf life.
Notes
You can add any dried fruit or nuts as per your choice. For sweet you can add honey or maple syrup or can add both too. To keep these vegan, opt for maple syrup or agave instead of honey. Any nut butter is also good for these Granola.
