Print recipe 
Ingredients
- 1 cup of freshly rolled oat flakes (or for a gluten-free version, use 1/2 cup of buckwheat and quinoa flakes)
- 1/2 cup of almond meal
- 1/2 cup of chopped pecans or walnuts
- 1/2 cup of shredded coconut
- 1/2 cup of currants or chopped raisins
- 1/4 cup of flax meal
- 4 tbsp of apple butter
- 2 tbsp of tahini or almond butter
- 2 tbsp of pure water
- 1 tbsp of raw honey
- 1/2 tsp of cinnamon powder
- 1 pinch of sea salt or rock salt
Directions
| Combine the freshly rolled oat flakes (or gluten-free version), almond meal, pecans or walnuts, shredded coconut, currants or chopped raisins, flax meal, apple butter, tahini or almond butter, water, raw honey, cinnamon powder, and the sea salt or rock salt. Mix the ingredients well and shape them into bars with your hands. As an alternative, press the mixture into a rectangular cookie cutter to form uniform bars. | |
| For eight to 10 hours, air dry the granola bars on a rack. If a dehydrator is an option, dry the bars for six to eight hours at 105 degrees Fahrenheit, or until your desired crispness is reached. | |
| If stored in an air-tight container in the fridge, the granola bars will keep for at least two weeks. | |
