Slow Cooker Granola Bars
Slow Cooker Granola Bars
Even if a snack is healthy, it doesn’t have to taste that way. Oats and dried fruit come together for this crunchy, slightly sweet granola: the perfect addition to yogurt and ice cream, and a great snack on its own. If you want extra crunch, add some chopped nuts.

Ingredients
- 4 cup old-fashioned oats

Directions
- In a 3-quart slow cooker, combine oats, sunflower kernels, coconut, and salt. In a small bowl, whisk oil and honey until well blended. Stir into oats mixture and cook on high for 2 hours, stirring every 30 minutes. When done cooking, spread granola on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and let cool.
