The 9 Best DIY Granola Bars

Let’s be honest, store-bought granola bars can sometimes be lacking in the “delicious” category (not to mention boasting some not-so-great ingredients), so why not make some of your own scrumptious granola bars?!  Not only are they 100% more tasty, but there’s also the added benefit of knowing exactly what you’re putting into your body.  Granola bars are perfect for those in-between-meal snacks and are also great for post-workout snacks.  Plus, they’ll give you a healthy boost of some much-needed energy to get you through the day.

So, with no further ado, we bring you the most delicious DIY granola bars for every palette.

No-Bake:

• Double Chocolate Peanut Butter  This one pretty much screams Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups – talk about delicious!
• Almond Butter and Chia Jam Bars with Chocolate  I can’t get enough of that ooey gooey layer of Chia-berry jam.
• Chewy Chocolate Chip Coconut Bars  These coconut-y bars are to-die-for – but I may be a bit biased since I have an unhealthy obsession with anything coconut!
• Peppermint Patty Bars  They’re like Girl Scout Cookies Thin Mint bars!  How could you say no to that!?

Baked:

• Blueberry Vanilla Greek Yogurt  Oh my gosh, that Greek yogurt coating looks way too yummy!
• Healthy Brownie Bars  The word “healthy” next to the word “brownie”?!  My life is finally complete.
• Chia, Quinoa and Banana  These bars are packed with super foods (they sounded so amazing that they 100% had to be featured in our graphic!)
• Pumpkin Seed, Almond and Quinoa  There are SO many yummy ingredients in this one!
• Whole-Grain Raspberry Jam Bars  There’s just something about jam-filled food that makes my mouth water!
