Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, toss the oats with the canola oil, melted butter and salt. Spread the mixture out on 2 baking sheets and toast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the pan twice and making sure they don't burn. Remove from the oven and set aside. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees F.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, honey, apple juice and molasses. Heat the mixture slowly, stirring until all combined. Stir in the vanilla and remove from the heat.
- Toss together the toasted oats, rice cereal, wheat germ, pecans and almonds. Pour in the sugar mixture, stirring as you pour. Toss to combine; it will be sticky.
- Press into 1 baking sheet (thoroughly greased with butter) and bake until golden, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool. Cut pieces with a sharp knife and remove from the pan. You can cut them while they're still warm if that's easier.
- Dip the cooled granola bars straight into the melted chocolate so that the top is plain and the bottom is chocolate-covered. Set on parchment until set, sticking in the fridge to hasten this along if necessary.
OLIVE OIL GRANOLA BARS
We used to buy a lot of packaged snacks but realized we could make more delicious snacks on our own. During our learning process, we decided to tackle granola bars first, because when they are made with the right ingredients, they have a hearty helping of protein, will keep you filled and are easy to transport.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8-by-8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, then lightly grease the paper with nonstick cooking spray. In a food processor, blend 1/3 cup of the oats until finely ground.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir together the ground oats, remaining 1 2/3 cups oats, brown sugar, dried cherries, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, cinnamon and salt. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, olive oil and maple syrup. Add the wet mixture to the dry mixture and stir until thoroughly combined.
- Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Bake for about 30 minutes, or until the top starts to brown and the edges are golden. Let cool in pan completely, then remove and cut into 12 bars. Bars can stay in an airtight container for up to a week.
