Peanut butter granola bar. On my shopping trip, I am always buying granola bars. Undoubtedly, my daughter has her favorites and my husband has her favorite types. Apart from this, the cost adds up on the receipt. Therefore, I want to try making my granola bar. Moreover, in the past, we tend to have a chocolate chip flavor quite often. I think it would be good to try something different.

Healthy Bar
To have a healthy bar, there are important things to pay attention to. Of course, it is important to focus on sugar. Thus, bars are better to use natural sugar from dates or natural maple syrup rather than table sugar. Furthermore, do choose good fat for the body such as nuts and seeds. These fats will make the body feel fuller. And the body will feel better. Besides, a good combination is to have good fiber, protein, and healthy fats.
