Maybe just skip the flax or add a bit more almonds? Katie Kelly,

They do fine at room temperature here in the winter though. For backpacking, I highly recommend a homemade larabar-type dried-fruit-and-nut bar. They really hold together well (I make little balls out of them for ease of serving/eating), hold up in heat, and are SO yummy and energizing. I have 14 variations in my eBook, but you can also find recipes via Google searches. Thanks!

I'm wondering what your thoughts are as to whether they would hold up well enough to take backpacking or would they just crumble to pieces. Did anyone who is a backpacker make these and what do you think? Do these need to be stored in the fridge to hold together?

I will definitely try substituting, I have lots of ground flax available or could grind up some nuts fairly easily. I just don't want to risk making a whole batch of something and not wanting to eat it because I can taste the coconut. Thanks so much for the response! I've never been really confident when it comes to altering recipes, so it helps to have some experienced input. :) Right you are, I was thinking the actual granola rather than the granola bars.

I'm thinking you could always try simply omitting it, or add extra flax or maybe ground nuts to compensate. I don't actually call for coconut in the granola bars, though. :) Katie Louise,

I can manage coconut oil in things, but not the actual shredded coconut, both texture and flavour do weird things to me. Can you suggest a reasonable substitute for the shredded coconut? Many thanks, Louise Hi Katie,
