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!
