Cranberry Nut Granola Bars

Ingredients

• 2 cups quick-cooking oats
• 1 cup old-fashioned oats
• 0.5 cups hulled pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cups slivered almonds
• 1 cup mixed nuts
• 1 cup dried cranberries
• 1 can sweetened condensed milk , 14 ounce

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 13x9-inch pan with lightly-greased parchment paper; an inch or so of parchment paper should stick up on 2 sides to form lifting handles.

2. 2

   Mix the quick-cooking oats, old-fashioned oats, pumpkin seeds, almonds, mixed nuts, cranberries, and sweetened condensed milk together in a bowl; spread into the prepared pan, evenly pressing into the corners and out to the sides.

3. 3

   Bake in the preheated oven until the edges are golden brown, 20-25 minutes, using slightly less time for chewier bars and slightly more time for crunchier bars.

4. 4

   Allow the the bars cool for 5 minutes in the pan before using the parchment paper to lift them from the pan. Use a sharp knife to cut into bars. Let the bars cool completely and store in an airtight container.
