Whenever you attempt to make granola bars but it surely as a substitute turns into granola (sure, please snigger!)
So, I used to be going to do one other Mini Meal Prep Session yesterday. I solely had an hour, however I had deliberate to make selfmade granola bars, marinated rooster, and mac & cheese with browned floor beef.
Since we liked the Home made Granola Bars I made not too long ago, I obtained the substances so I may lastly attempt my sister’s granola bar recipe that has been on the weblog for years and so lots of you’ve got instructed me you’ve liked a lot.
There have been a number of various things occurring at our home once I was attempting to cook dinner and once I boiled the liquid substances on the range, I by accident allow them to boil for too lengthy — which meant that it was too thick and dry to moisten the dry substances and make them into granola bars.
No drawback, I assumed, I’ll simply whip up some extra liquid substances into syrup. Nevertheless it nonetheless wasn’t working and the clock was ticking and we would have liked to be out the door for dinner with our Neighborhood Group.
So I simply determined to press them into the pans and see if they’d occur to harden up sufficient whereas we had been gone. Nope… they wouldn’t maintain collectively nearly in any respect, so I scrapped plan A and went to plan B: turning the granola bar combination into granola!
I dumped it onto to 2 pans, unfold it out, and baked it at 375 levels for round 25 minutes. And would it? It labored and the tip consequence was a scrumptious granola that Jesse was excited to make use of to prime his yogurt and fruit with!
The humorous that is that I had simply been considering I wished to make selfmade granola quickly, because it’s been awhile since I’ve made it. Nicely, now I’ve made it!
However I nonetheless can’t formally say I’ve tried my sister’s granola bar recipe. 
Hoping to truly make that occur quickly!
