Copycat Nature Valley Granola Bars

Save money by making copycat Nature Valley granola bars at home (and save time by not having to run to the store to buy them)! This homemade version is super simple to make and tastes just like the real thing. Using my food scientist background, I worked backward to duplicate the flavor and texture of this classic snack at home.
