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.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Planters Brittle Nut Medley
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 cups oats
  • mini chocolate chips
  • chocolate covered peanut butter pieces

Instructions

  1. Mix together the Planters Brittle Nut Medley, oats, brown sugar, chocolate chips and chocolate covered peanut butter pieces together.
  2. Warm the honey and peanut butter in a small pot over low heat.
  3. Pour over peanut/oats mixture.
  4. Once mixed thoroughly put in a shallow pan covered in parchment paper.
  5. Cover with another layer of parchment paper and use your hands to spread the mixture out evenly.
  6. Set it in the freezer for 15 minutes to harden and cool.
  7. Remove from the pan and cut into the size bars you would like.
  8. Store in an airtight container.

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.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
