{Home made granola bars}
I just made a batch of these to take with us to Wales. I tested one to make sure they were not poisonous and I was delightfully surprised. I'm sharing this lovely recipe with you all 

Ingredients:

2 1/2 cups of whole oats
1 cup chopped almonds
1 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup of honey
1/4 cup almond milk (can substitute applesauce but it makes it a more spongy texture)
1 banana

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Begin by mixing all of the dry ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, smash the banana until it's a smooth, even texture. Mix in the honey and almond milk.Combine the two bowls, stirring thoroughly. Firmly pack the mixture into a baking pan. Pan size depends on how thin or thick you want the bars to be. I used a 4x6 inch pan. Bake them for 25-30 minutes. 25 for a softer texture, 30 for a more crisp and crunchy texture. Let them cool to room temperature, followed by cutting them into 8-12 bars. To store, wrap them tightly in clear plastic wrap, and keep them in a dry, cool place. These have a shelf life of one week.
