      Hi! I just made a double batch of these to take camping this weekend! Do they need to be refrigerated or is sitting on the counter in an air tight container good enough?

        Hi! Room temp in an airtight container is perfect! I hope you enjoy. 🙂

      These sound really good, but could you use fresh blueberries? Dried ones are full of sugar IMO.

        To be honest, I've made so many variations of these bars but never with fresh fruit. I do think it would work! However, I think they would be more like baked oatmeal bars and less like chewy granola bars, if that makes sense! We love to use apple juice-sweetened dried blueberries, and while I know are still full of natural sugars, you can use less in the recipe if you'd prefer just a touch of sweetness. I hope this helps! And if you try it with fresh, I would love to hear about it! 🙂
