Minimalist Baker’s Super Seedy Granola Bars

November 11, 2016 Jump to Recipe | Pin Recipe Print Recipe

We used our Vitamix to make these granola bars even more minimalist

Last Updated February 6, 2018
Minimalist Bakers Super Seedy Granola Bars featured by Life is NOYOKE.

Normally, we find inspiration and create our own recipes.

But this week, we made some awesome no-bake granola bars using The Minimalist Baker’s recipe. They’re called Super Seedy Granola Bars and they were delicious.

But they’re more than a great thing to make in your Vitamix. These granola bars’ existence on this site comes with a good story.

Challenge accepted: Val emailed asking for these bars

So Shalva’s girlfriend, Val, sent her the best email the other day.

It was so good, it inspired us to make a video in response.

Useful tips for Minimalist Baker’s Super Seedy Granola Bars

If you’re into making your own snacks, definitely check out a NOYOKE original recipe, Homemade Granola Bars.

Beyond the dates and oats, none of these ingredients are vital. You can make tons of substitutions and they will still be delicious. Any nut butter, any sticky binder, any nut, any seed, any little bite of something sweet.

Seedy Bars' ingredients.

Invest in or register for a good knife, (thanks Sugarmans!) Beyond making these bars super easy to cut, it has made kitchen prep a breeze. We didn't know what we were missing.

You'll want to eat the whole tray, but if there's any left, wrap them in wax paper and keep them in the fridge for up to one week.

If you're using anything other than the 32 oz. container, you'll have to double the recipe.

    Hi Shalva,
    If I wanted to make these granola bars in the 64 oz low profile container, your saying I would have to double the recipe? That would yield a lot of granola bars though so could I freeze them? With this recipe it makes 8-10 which would be more ideal then like 16-20 since you said they will keep for about a week. So should I still opt to double the recipe or just keep it as is? I have figured out that it is easier making things in the 64 oz with bigger batches but don’t really want to make that many granola bars.
    Thanks Shalva

      Hi Brett,

      In order to get the ingredients to cover the blade, you’ll need to double the recipe for the 64 oz container. It certainly is a lot of granola bars, but they do freeze well 🙂
