Time 1h15m

Yield 12 bars

Number Of Ingredients 13

Cooking spray
2 1/2 cups rolled oats (225 grams)
2 tablespoons ground flax seed (14 grams)
1/2 cup crumbled digestive biscuits (60 grams)
1/2 cup finely chopped walnuts (65 grams)
1/2 cup chocolate chips (60 grams)
1/4 cup brown sugar (50 grams)
1/4 cup honey (85 grams)
1/4 cup golden corn syrup (85 grams)
6 tablespoons unsalted butter (85 grams)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup mini marshmallows, optional (40 grams)

Steps:

  • Grease a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray, line the bottom with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Combine the oats, flax seed, digestive biscuits, walnuts and chocolate chips in a large heat-proof bowl.
  • Combine the sugar, honey, corn syrup and butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts and the mixture starts to boil. Once it has come to a light boil, cook the mixture for 2 minutes to dissolve the sugar.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the vanilla and kosher salt. Add to the oat mixture and stir to combine. Stir in the marshmallows, if using.
  • Scrape the mixture into your prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer. Place the pan in the fridge for about 1 hour to firm up.
  • Carefully lift the granola bars out of the pan and slice into 12 equal bars. Wrap individually in parchment, wax paper or plastic wrap and place in a tightly sealed container.
  • For a chewier bar, store in the fridge. For softer bars, store in the cupboard.
