How To Store Your Own Granola Bars
The best way to store this great snack is in the freezer in an airtight container. They become quite sticky if left out at room temperature, or in the fridge so they are best kept in the freezer.
Plus, this way it means your granola bars will stay good for longer.
These bars will last for around 3 months in the freezer.
Recipe Notes
These bars are very sticky so if you wanted to make them more like crunchy granola bars, simply add more granola, and less of the liquid sweetener.
If you love peanut butter, instead of the almond butter, swap this out for peanut butter instead to make peanut butter granola bars.
Of course, you could also use cashew butter or sunflower seed butter instead if you’d prefer not to use almond or peanut butter.
