I similarly have been impressed with Costco's granola, but haven't been able to find a close recipe. I'll be watching this thread, as Granola bars could be the way to go.

This recipie was given to me by a friend
3 Cups (750ml) Rolled Oats (porridge oats)
1 cup (250ml Chopped Peanuts (or any nuts you have)
1 cup (250ml) Raisins
1 cup (250ml) Sunflower Seeds
1/2 cup (125ml) Melted Butter
1 cup (250ml) Choc Chips (optional)
1 can Condensed Milk
In a large bowl combine all ingredients and mix well.
Line a 15 x 10" pan (meat tin) with Baking parchment
Press mixture evenly into pan
Bake 25-30 mins at 160*c or 325*f or until golden brown.
Cool. remove from pan and cut into bars.
I haven't made these myself yet but have tasted my friends and they were yummy.0 -
I replied to the muesli bar thread before I saw this one still high calorie and high fat but I think alot healthier and definitely more protein (with peanuts) so I'll definitely be trying this one.You should never call somebody else a nerd or geek because everybody (even YOU !!!) is an"anorak" about something whether it's trains, computers, football, shoes or celebs

I have some Quaker Granola in the cupboard (a box of apple and balckberry an on of strawberry and raspberry),that I would like to turn into Granola bars for the kids packed lunches tomorrow.
I have light and dark sugars, honey, maple and golden syrup, butter, spices etc.
I also have a bag of wheatgerm thats been kicking around if that's any use?
Any ideas?Twins, twice the laughs, twice the fun, twice the mess!:j:j0 -
Hi prettypennies,
There's an older thread with a recipe that should help so I've added your thread to it to keep the replies together.

The January edition of Delicious magazine has a great recipe for granola in it, and a recipe showing you how to turn it into a granola bar. Not sure if it's still in the shops but if you can get hold of a copy I'd really recommend it

Granola recipe from 'Delicious' is .. welll..... delicious!
I found a recipe that was deemed to be like the Starbucks granola bar, can't locate at the mo, but will have another look. I googled.
The list of ingredients in the recipe isn't the same as those in the Starbucks blurb,

Try this link http://www.scot-trek.co.uk/granola.php.It's the recipe that was in Good Food a couple of years ago and is the closest I've ever found to the Starbucks one.
