Join the discussionLoved the recipe! Trying to find sweet treats that are healthier than packaged store bought. Crossing my fingers my picky guy likes them. If not, I’ll end up eating the whole pan.:)
Would a cookie sheet work? I don’t have a jelly roll pan or even know what it looks like! Thanks!
a jelly roll pan is a cookie sheet with edges. 🙂 So what you have will likely work. A 9×13 pan can work as well.
I made these tonight and they wont stay together, just crumbles. Any idea why? I did use low fat margarine, maybe thats why?
Hi Julie! I hope you will give these another try. If you need to increase the honey a bit to offset the low fat margarine–you might need to play around with it. Low fat margarine sometimes doesn’t act the same way in cooking as other varieties.
Is there any specific reason why you couldn’t just mix in the chocolate chips with the other dry ingredients?
They just might melt a little from the heat of the other ingredients – try it and let us know how it goes!
How long can you freeze them for?
Hi Tishy, food that is frozen is safe indefinitely per USDA regulations. However for taste, we say pastries last 4-6 months taste wise, so I would go with that time range for these granola bars. Hope this helps! ~OAMM
