No Bake Granola Bars!

I am told these granola bars are "gluten free" So I am posting this for all those with gluten allergies. I know some people who have also substituted the peanut butter for peabutter if you have peanut allergies.

What a great recipe!! And what a coincidence! I was just checking the blogs I follow and I found your post!
I was thinking earlier about making some home made cereal bars for my daughter have for breakfast, she is not a big fan of cereals but she loves those cereal bars :|
I'll try to make them today!

YUM! Definitely trying this recipe! I have a similar recipe. I call it my "breakfast bar" recipe. I add dried cranberries, raisins, sunflower seeds, and pepitas.
