Granola Bars

I made these once in the summer when I was craving some sort of granola for breakfast, and now, every time I come home my Dad asks me to make it again. These bars are great for a snack, breakfast or even to crumble overtop of yogurt! They are very moist and tend to crumble apart if they are cut while still warm so make sure to wait until they are completely cooled.
