I’ve tried to make these twice and the consistency is coming out more like banana bread, or cake, and not chewy granola bar. I made them again this morning to try again, and used slightly less baking soda, same thing. It tastes amazing, but its not coming out how I want so my kids can eat them without making a mess. Any recommendations as to what I can do?
