All-Bran Chocolate Chip Bars

Last updated on January 2, 2022 By Anna 3 Comments This post may contain affiliate links.

If you need a break from rich holiday foods but are still craving something sweet, this recipe should do the trick. It's a chewy, bar cookie made with All-Bran cereal, whole wheat and white flour, chocolate chips and nuts.

All-Bran Chocolate Chip Bars

I found it on the All-Bran website while searching for sweet & healthy snacks. The recipe was almost perfect to begin with, but I tripled the chocolate chips and added pecans, anyway.  That turned out to be a good call, because without the extra goodies, the bars might have tasted a little too healthy.  But don't let that description scare you, because the cookies are still delicious and very good with a cup of tea or coffee.

Ingredients
 

  • 1 ¼ cup Kellogg's® All-Bran® Original cereal
  • ½ cup whole wheat flour stir well, aerate and measure lightly
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour stir well, aerate and measure lightly
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 ½ cups firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • ¾ cup semisweet or dark chocolate chips
  • ⅓ cup chopped pecans optional

Instructions
 

  • Line a 9x13 inch metal pan with nonstick foil or regular foil. If using regular foil, spray lightly with cooking spray.
  • In a small bowl, stir together bran cereal, flours, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  • In large mixing bowl, whisk together oil, egg and sugar. Stir in vanilla and water. Add cereal mixture, stirring until well combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Spread evenly in the pan. Sprinkle nuts over the top (if using).
  • Bake at 350° F about 30 minutes or until golden brown.
  • Let cool completely, then lift from pan and cut into 16 or 24 bars or squares.

Notes

For a half batch, halve all the ingredients and just use 2 tablespoons of lightly beaten egg. Bake in an 8 inch square metal pan for about 25 minutes.

    Just bought a box of All Bran (first in years) to make muffins. Have bookmarked these to try too. They definitely look like a Weight Watchers friendly sweet treat!

    Gloria, the All-Bran Chocolate Chip Cookies were also really good and probably a little more kid-friendly. These were tasty, but the bran flavor was pretty strong. It's a lot more subtle in the cookies.
