While there are several sticky ingredients to get your homemade granola bars to stick together. We have found that pure maple syrup or honey does the trick! It acts as the glue to stick everything together! If you find that your granola bars are still crumbly, add a table spoon or more of maple syrup or almond butter. PRO TIP: Freeze for 30 to 45 minutes prior to cutting. THEN wrap individually and store in the freezer. Makes for a cool chilly snack on a hot day!
