Strawberry Cobbler Granola Bars

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup self rising flour or use all purpose + 1/2 tsp baking powder & 3/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup quick oats
  • 1/4 cup [url:1]granulated honey[/url] or substitute sugar
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons milk of your choice
  • 2 cups sliced strawberries fresh or frozen, I used frozen - do thaw your berries first though
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 3 teaspoons vanilla extract divided
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
  • Combine the oats, flour, & granulated honey (or sugar). Mix in the oil, milk, & 1 teaspoon of the vanilla extract to form a dough. Scoop out 1/2 cup's worth of the dough & set aside.
  • In another bowl, combine the strawberries (or other fruit), white chocolate chips, maple syrup, remaining 2 tsp of vanilla extract, & the cornstarch.
  • Line an 8x8 dish with aluminum foil & spray with nonstick cooking spray. Spread the granola dough into the bottom of the dish. Top the granola dough with the strawberry mixture. Crumble the remaining 1/2 cup of dough on top of the entire thing.
  • Bake, at 400 degrees, for 55 minutes - or until the top is browned & the mixture is firm. Let cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing into bars. Store in the fridge. Best eaten warm, but also good cold!
