S'mores Granola Bars
S’mores and granola bars are the perfect match! The oats, syrup and marshmallows make the bars extremely chewy. I think they are best when they've completely cooled and the chocolate has set.
Servings 16 squares
Cost 5
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (170 grams)
- ¼ cup firmly packed light brown sugar (50 grams)
- 6 tablespoons golden syrup, maple syrup or corn syrup (114 grams)
- 2 ¼ cups oats (215 grams)
- ½ cup unbleached all-purpose flour (60 grams)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (100 grams)
- 1 cup semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips (170 grams)
- 1 ¼ cups mini marshmallows (150 grams)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9-inch square pan with nonstick foil or parchment paper.
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan, then add the sugar and syrup and stir until sugar is dissolved. Off heat, stir in the oats, flour, salt, and graham cracker crumbs.
- Press a little over half of the mixture into the prepared pan. Let it cool completely if it is still warm.
- Sprinkle the chocolate chips evenly over the top, then the marshmallows. Top with the remaining crust mixture, pressing it down to flatten.
- Bake the bars for about 18 to 20 minutes or until edges are caramelized and golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely. Chill slightly before cutting (for neat edges). You can also slice while warm if you'd rather have warm bars.
- These can be cut cut into bars or squares depending on the occasion.
