Granola Bars

Homemade granola bars are awesome!  These are chewy and crunchy.  You need to make sure you use a parchment lined baking sheet or you'll be scrubbing for days (oops!). 

• 4 c old fashioned oats
• 1/4 c whole wheat flour
• 1/2 c shredded unsweetened coconut (I couldn't find unsweetened so I used sweetened)
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 cup canola oil
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 cup toppings (I used chocolate chips, but you could use peanut butter chips, raisins, dried fruit)

Preheat oven to 325.

Combine oats, flour, coconut, sugar, topping, and salt..  In separate bowl, whisk together  oil, vanilla and honey.  Pour wet ingredients over oat mixture and stir to combine. Place on parchment lined baking sheet (shape into giant rectangle) or use a parchment lined pan (should be approx 1 in thick).  Bake for 40 min.  Allow to cool for 10 min then cut into bars.  You can wrap the bars separately.
