S’mores Granola Bars (Vegan Option)

Recipe for S'mores Granola Bars with Cocoa Chocolate Chip Granola - vegan options

We packed this wholesome granola bar recipe with the nostalgic flavors and gooey marshmallows you love in s'mores, but you can make these treats right on your stove top--no open flame required! Our Cocoa Chocolate Chip Granola adds extra chocolatey goodness to these bars, a fun treat for on-the-go snacking and sharing.

Makes 12 bars

Ingredients

¼ cup salted butter *

¼ cup dark brown sugar

⅓ cup honey *

¼ tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup mini Dandies® Vegan Marshmallows

½ cup graham cracker crumbs

1 - 12oz bag Michele’s Cocoa Chocolate Chip Granola, crushed in the bag into rough crumbs 

 

Directions

  1. In a small saucepan, melt butter and brown sugar together. Turn off heat and add honey, salt and vanilla. Whisk to combine. Take off the stove to allow to cool a few minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, combine marshmallows, granola crumbs, and graham cracker crumbs. Drizzle in the warm (not hot!) honey syrup and stir together.
  3. Very firmly compress the bar mixture in a 9-inch square baking pan lined with parchment paper. Press with wet hands, or you can cover the pan with plastic wrap or parchment to more tightly compress the bars.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours (freeze for 30 minutes) before cutting into 12 bars.
  5. Store in the fridge or freezer and enjoy!

*Kitchen Tip

Make these bars vegan with a few simple swaps:

  • Use a vegan butter, like Miyoko’s or Earth Balance
  • In place of honey, use brown rice syrup
  • In a fun surprise, classic Nabisco Original Grahams are vegan!
