I was able to find them! I will restore them to the blog soon. Here is the recipe:

Homemade Granola Bars
makes 20 bars

2 cups rolled oats
3/4 cup wheat germ
1/3 cup sunflower seeds
1/3 cup pumpkin seeds
1 cup whole almonds
2 Tbsp flax seeds

1 cup shredded coconut
1/2 cup raisins
1/2 cup dried cherries

1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup agave nectar
6 tbsp non-hydrogenated vegan butter
2 tsp vanilla extract
pinch of salt

Line a 9×13 baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set aside.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl combine oats, wheat germ, seeds, and nuts. Spread onto a larger baking sheet and toast for 8 minutes, stirring ever couple minutes. Stir in shredded coconut and continue to toast for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from oven, stir in dried fruit. Return to bowl and set aside.

In a saucepan combine brown sugar, agave nectar, vegan butter, salt, and vanilla. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Once sugar has melted pour hot liquids over the oats and mix thoroughly to combine.

Transfer granola onto prepared 9×13 baking sheet, spread evenly, and press down hard. Let granola cool for 1-2 hours. Flip baking sheet over to release and cut into bars.

Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

The oats, wheat germ and coconut were baked in the oven 8 min, but it was a no bake granola. I just can’t remember the measurements....it was the BEST GRANOLA BARS EVER!
Please try to help me out, thank you.

Buckwheat grouts give great texture in lieu of coconut or oats.

Yeah, that should work. If you've already tried it, let us know how they turned out!

The coconut gives it a lot of the texture. You could try grinding up oats to a similar texture of coconut (which would make these bars not grain-free) and substituting it out 1:1. If you try it, let us know how that goes!
