An Easy, No-Bake Granola Recipe Everyone Will Love

By Chelsea Lords for Discover and Play

This no-bake granola is a great on-the-go snack to help you stick to your healthy eating goals. The granola is filled with tasty ingredients, but remains highly customizable to your taste preferences. The main ingredient is old-fashioned oats, which help lower your cholesterol and have also been proven to aid in appetite control hormones.

INGREDIENTS

• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons honey
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup old fashioned oats
• 1/4 cup oat flour (oats that have been processed to a fine powder)*
• 1/4 cup Rice Krispies cereal
• 3/4 cup mix-ins of choice (I used 1/4 cup slivered almonds, 1/4 cup craisins, and 1/4 cup chocolate chips)
