Homemade Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

Making homemade pumpkin chocolate chip granola bars is so simple and delicious. During the fall months, I love to add in as much pumpkin as possible to my recipes.

Making pumpkin chocolate chip granola bars is as simple as mixing all the ingredients in a bowl. Then, baking them for 20 minutes and allowing them to cool before cutting them into bars. They never last for more than just a few days in our home.

What Toppings Can I Add in Granola

You can add in a variety of nuts and even dried fruit. Be creative! I chose to keep it very simple as that is what best suits the majority of our household. Here are some options.

• Raisins
• Walnuts
• Almonds
• Coconut
• Chia Seeds
• Flax Seeds

Homemade Granola Bars With No Sugar

A lot of granola bars are filled with sugar and artificial ingredients. For this recipe I chose to use honey from my own bees. Another healthy option would be to use pure maple syrup.

Both are delicious and a much healthier option than refined sugars. Making your own granola bars is healthier when made with real food ingredients.
