When selecting a granola bar, it’s important to check the ingredient label carefully and choose products made mostly from real foods. Such as fruits, nuts, and grains.
Additionally, look for a product with less than 10 grams of sugar, at least 5 grams of protein, and at least 3 grams of fiber to help keep you feeling full in between meals ทางเข้า UFABET
As a general rule of thumb, steer clear of granola bars that list sugar or other sweeteners within the first three ingredients. Note that ingredients are listed in descending order by weight.
Plus, choose products with limited ingredient lists.
If you’re watching your weight, take a look at the calorie content and stick to granola bar with fewer than 250 calories per serving.
Alternatively, you can opt to make your own granola bars using just a few simple ingredients.
To get started, combine the following in a large bowl:
- 2 cups (312 grams) of oats
- 1 cup (200 grams) of nuts (almonds, walnuts, pecans, pistachios, etc.)
- 1 cup (220 grams) of packed dates
- 1/4–1/2 cup (65–130 grams) of nut butter
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) of maple syrup or honey (optional)
- mix-ins, such as dried fruit, coconut flakes, or chocolate chips
Be sure to pulse the dates in a food processor for about one minute. And warm the nut butter and maple syrup or honey in a saucepan before adding them to the mixture.
Stir the ingredients together, add the mix to a lined baking dish or loaf pan. And allow it to set in the freezer for 20–25 minutes. Then slice, serve and enjoy.
