Steps to Prepare Chewy Dark Chocolate Granola Bars

Soft And Chewy Chocolate-Banana Oat Bars

These granola bars have all the goodness of quaker chewy granola bars, but without the corn syrup, refined sugar, and long list of artificial ingredients.

Recipe Summary Soft And Chewy Chocolate-Banana Oat Bars

Chocolate, banana, and coconut-filled bars! I love to eat these right out of the freezer for a tasty frozen snack. They make a quick breakfast or midday snack for kids and adults alike.

Ingredients | Chewy Dark Chocolate Granola Bars

3 packets CARNATION BREAKFAST ESSENTIALS® Rich Milk Chocolate Powdered Drink Mix

½ cup almond butter

¾ cup old-fashioned oats

1 small ripe banana, mashed

¼ cup unsweetened shredded coconut

cooking spray

Directions

Combine drink mix, almond butter, oats, banana, and coconut in a medium bowl.

Line an 8-inch baking pan with foil. Spray foil with cooking spray.

Press mixture evenly into the pan and place freeze until firm, 2 to 3 hours. Cut into bars. Serve frozen, or let soften in the refrigerator.

I prefer to store these in the freezer for a firmer texture. If you keep these in the refrigerator, they will have a soft, gooey texture.
