Granola Bars By Ashley

Homemade Granola Bars:
2c Cereal (I like using Raisin Bran Crunch or Special K w/fruit or yogurt)
2c Quick Cooking Oats (I prefer old fashioned)
1c Craisins (or other dried fruit)
1/4c Chia Seeds
1/2c Packed Brown Sugar
2/3c Honey
2/3c Peanut Butter (I prefer crunchy)
1t Vanilla
1t Cinnamon

You can also add nuts, seeds, m&ms, candy, or chocolate chips of any kind to make it your own.

In a large bowl stir together cereal, oats, craisins, chia seeds, and cinnamon.
Grease a 9x13 baking dish or a couple of cookie sheets (depending on how thick you want them)
Combine the brown sugar and honey in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until just boiling then remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla until smooth.
Pour over cereal & oat mixture and mix well.
Press into baking dish or cookie sheets. Allow to cool then cut & serve.
