Chocolate-pretzel stovetop granola bars

Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high. Add 1 1/4 cups quick oats, stirring often, until browned, 4-5 minutes. Set aside.
Stir 1/4 cup each unsalted butter, creamed honey and packed brown sugar in a large saucepan set over medium-high. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar is dissolves. Remove from heat and stir in oats, 3/4 cup each rice crispies, chopped pretzels and 2 tablespoons of flax seeds until combined.
Scrape into a greased 8x8 inch baking dish. Smooth top, then sprinkle with 1/3 cup chocolate chips. Refrigerate until firm, about 30mins. Cut into bars. Let stand at room temperature 5 mins before serving. Keeps well, refrigerated in a resealable plastic bag, up to 1 week.

Makes 18 bars/ great source of fibre and delicious!
