Cinnamon Granola Bars
I make these at least once a week for my husband, David. He takes one in his lunch every week and never gets tired of them. I love providing him with something so healthy to snack on that doesn't taste low-fat. —Jessica VanLaningham, Cockeysville, Maryland12 ServingsPrep: 15 min. Bake: 15 min. + cooling
