Instructions

  • In a microwave safe bowl, combine honey and peanut butter. Microwave for 30 seconds to soften the peanut butter, creating a runny consistency. Add vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine oats, puffed rice cereal, shredded coconut, salt, cinnamon, almonds, and freeze dried strawberries.
  • Pour peanut butter/honey mixture over the dry ingredients. Stir to combine. It may help to use your hands to ensure everything is fully mixed.
  • Press the mix into a parchment paper lined, 8-inch square pan. This is essential to ensuring the bars stay together. Freeze for at least 2 hours.
  • Once the bars are frozen, gently slice into 16 equal-sized granola bars.
  • To make the yogurt coating, whisk together Greek yogurt, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk.
  • Dip the top of each granola bar into the yogurt coating and place on a parchment lined baking sheet. Drizzle with melted white chocolate and sprinkle with additional freeze-dried strawberries if desired. Store in the freezer!
