Ingredients

For the granola bars:
• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
• 1/2 cup dried fruit (optional)
• 1/2 cup chocolate chips (optional)
For the chocolate coating:
• 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/2 teaspoon coconut oil

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch (20x20 cm) baking pan and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the oats, honey, and melted coconut oil until combined. Stir in the optional mix-ins, such as nuts, dried fruit, or chocolate chips, if desired.
3. Spread the granola mixture into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
4. To make the chocolate coating, place the chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring between each interval, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
5. Dip the cooled bars into the melted chocolate, then place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set. Serve and enjoy!
