Homemade Granola Bar Recipe with Salty Pretzels

Just few weeks ago we got home from a super fast but really fun vacation to Yellowstone. We live about 10 hours away which in all reality is pretty close. My husband and I had both never been, we were planning to visit my sister in Idaho to enjoy her new baby anyhow, and it all just seemed to work out for us to go visit that amazing park. I spent WEEKS getting ready, planning and preparing meals to stick in the freezer and crock-pot while we were there (our little cabin had electricity but no water), making snacks, and preparing to take 4 adults (2 of my younger siblings went) and 3 kids on an epic journey. I made all kinds of things and I just have to share our very favorite with you: chocolate peanut butter pretzel granola bars. This my friends is the king of all homemade granola bar recipes.

No Bake Peanut Butter Chocolate Granola Bars

These homemade granola bars are quick, easy, no-bake, and delicious. You seriously can’t go wrong with the combo of peanut butter and chocolate with those crunchy salty pretzels thrown in. Everyone on the trip went nuts over them and I’ll admit that I ate a quiet a few while I was packing them and taking pictures. They were totally addicting and the perfect sweet and salty snack. I’ll be making these again!

And here are those nummy little morsels in all of their food photography glory (just kidding… they were so hard to photograph!):

And while I was munching on them in the car one of these walked by. Crazy!

And then after hauling all these kiddos around. I ate another. With all the hiking and merriment the calories went right out the window if you ask me and I felt no guilt munching on one just about every time we stopped the car and I could dig into the cooler.

And then the baby enjoyed one in the sand at Yellowstone Lake. Seriously guys, they were amazing. And so are you… thanks a bunch for reading. I sure like you.

You can freeze granola bars just as you would cookies. Make sure they are stored in an airtight container or Ziploc bag to maintain optimal freshness.
