Granola Bars

Granola Bars- Not Vegan

2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup wheat bran
3/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup all-purpose or whole wheat flour
3/4 cup goodies (chocolate chips, PB chips, raisens) I usually reduce this ingredient to 1/2 cup at most
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup agave nectar or honey
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup canola oil - I often reduce this if I add PB
2 tsp vanilla

Variations:
For Michael:
1/2 cup brown sugar
Whole wheat flour
1/2 cup PB chips
1/2 agave
1/4 canola
Big ol' spoon of PB

For Boys:
All purpose flour - Connor turns his nose up at whole wheat
1/2 cup ground flax instead of wheat bran
1/2 cup chocolate chips

Preheat to 350. Grease 9x13 glass pan. Mix oats, sugar, wheat bran, cinnamon, flour, goodies, salt. Make a well in center, pour in honey or agave, egg, oil and vanilla. Mix well. Pat in to pan. Bake 18 minutesish.
