I have been wanting to make some homemade granola bars for awhile, but had been putting it off. When I saw the new Planters Brittle Nut Medley in Walmart the other day I knew it was time. These were really easy to make and very customizable. You can add whatever type of Planters Nuts you like.
The Brittle Nut Medley has Honey Roasted Peanuts (my fav!), yogurt flavored raisins, peanut brittle, pretzels and cashews. Those all sound scrumptious and perfect to put into a homemade granola bar.

Notes
For a cookie sheet you would want to at least double this recipe so you can have thick bars.
If you want your nuts to be smaller in your granola bars you can put them in a bag and smash them.
Dustyn even enjoyed them and he is my picky eater. I will be making more of these in the future.
Have you heard about the new Blippar App? No? It is new to me too, but so much fun! It is a great way to interact with brands. Here is a selfie I took with Mr. Peanut. You can take selfies and share on your social media. I think the boys would love taking some selfies with Mr. Peanut. So cute! There were a few different Mr. Peanuts to choose from. They also have information about their Holiday products.
I had way too much fun making this stop motion video! Lets all #GoNutsForNuts.
What kind of nuts would you put in your granola bar?
