Why You'll Love This Recipe

Quick & Healthy: These simple homemade granola bars are a quick and easy recipe that makes a healthy snack. These chewy granola bars with no sugar use honey and date syrup as opposed to traditional cane sugar. They are just sweet enough for an amazing snack that also fills you up!

Soft & Chewy: These healthy Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola Bars are soft and chewy, thanks to the peanut butter and honey. These chewy granola bars with no sugar make a healthy snack that you can easily make at home!

PB + Chocolate: I added mini chocolate chips to these simple homemade granola bars because Delaney and I love chocolate and peanut butter. But, the chocolate adds a little sugar. So, if you want chewy granola bars with no sugar completely, you can add nuts in their place or you can also add dried fruit for natural sugars too. My brother is making them with dried strawberries, for a PB & J style granola bar, which I think sounds delicious!
