Our Hippie Snacks organic Chili Lime Clusters bring a nice spicy touch to this granola, but the recipe will also work great with our Superseed Coconut Clusters or Sesame Coconut Clusters. Made from nutrient-packed seeds, these homemade granola bar deliver unforgettable flavour and crunch. We love making these granola bars with True Bees honey because we know how much passion and love this company has for the bees, their farm and the community.  For a great Vegan option, these bars can also be sweetened with Bumble Bloom plant-based honey alternative.
