"My friend Alexis gave me this recipe and I loved it! These granola bars are great if you love granola, but want something that is fresh and all-natural. Additionally, they are a lot cheaper than buying the Natural and Organic bars in the stores. They can even be made vegan by substituting the honey for pure maple syrup. Enjoy!"

*Add what you like -- coconut, nuts, sunflower seeds, etc to make it your own. You can also reduce the oatmeal and add other cereal, etc.

These taste great, but when you hear "granola" you think healthy - and these have a stick and half of butter in them, therefore the 3 stars. I baked them at 350 degrees.
