Coconut Granola Bars
Ingredients:
- ¾ cup coconut butter
- ½ cup honey
- 2 Tbsp coconut oil (melted to measure)
- ½ tsp fine sea salt
- 2¼ cups old-fashioned rolled oats (Gluten Free, if needed)
- ½ cup hemp seeds
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Directions:
Line a 8×8″ baking dish with parchment paper.
In a large heavy saucepan, add the coconut butter, honey, and coconut oil, melt over medium heat, sitting often until the mixture is simmering. Simmer for a minute more, stirring.
Take off the heat.
Ann in the salt, oats, and hemps seeds, stirring well.
Set aside for 10 minutes.
Stir in ½ cup of the chocolate chips (they will melt a bit). Scrape into the prepared dish, packing down firmly with a heavy spoon or measuring cup.
Sprinkle on the remaining chocolate chips on the top, pressing down gently if desired.
Chill until cold, turn out and cut into bars.
Keep refrigerated in an air tight container for up to a week, or freeze for up to 3 months. The bars are best for cooler weather trips as they will get soft in heat.
