Somehow, someway, sprinkles hopped into my bowl of oats! Is it just me or does adding sprinkles make almost everything taste better? Sprinkled with color and flavor these Funfetti Granola Bars are a lunch box favorite. Six ingredients and about five minutes of hands on time are all that’s required to make these tasty bars. If you’re a cake batter funfetti fan, you’ll love this recipe.
I’ve been making granola bars and granola for as long as I can remember just because that way I know exactly what I am eating. Not only that, it is so much more cost effective than purchasing bars from the store. These bars would be a great recipe to make with kids because everything is mixed up in one bowl, and mixing is really the only skill that is required. These are foolproof!
Ingredients:
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup honey
2 3/4 cups oats
3/4 cup white cake mix (I like to use Miss Jones mix from Whole Foods)
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 tablespoons colored sprinkles
3/4 cup white chocolate chips
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line an 8” square baking dish with parchment paper or foil and lightly coat with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a microwaveable mixing bowl, combine the honey and butter. Microwave for 30 seconds. Stir a few times, until the butter is completely melted.
- Add in the oats, cake mix, vanilla and sprinkles. Stir until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into your baking pan and use the back of a spatula to make sure the mixture is pressed down firmly.
- Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until the edges are brown and golden. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
- Once cool, slice into bars. Melt the white chocolate and drizzle across the bars.
