Cinnamon Raisin Granola Bars

I recently tried a new recipe for granola bars…oh these are good!  They taste like the store-bought bars..but even better!  Give them a try!

CINNAMON RAISIN GRANOLA BARS

• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup organic sugar
• 2 teaspoons molasses
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 cup whole wheat flour (or you can use oat flour for a gluten-free version)
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup raisins

In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, honey, egg, sugar, molasses, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt.  Add in the flour, oats, and raisins and mix well.

Pat into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan.

Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until the bars begin to turn a little golden around the edges (but don’t cook too long!)

Allow the bars to cool for about 5 minutes, then cut.  Cut while the bars are still warm or they will be too hard to cut when they are cool.
