Lightly grease an 8" x 8" baking pan or dish. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, mix together the dried cranberries or other dried fruit and the granola. Set aside.
In a small sauce pot, combine agave or corn syrup, brown sugar, and peanut butter. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until hot and bubbly. This process goes fairly quickly and the mixture will burn easily if not stirred.
Pour peanut butter mixture over the granola mixture. Stir well to combine.
Press mixture evenly in the prepared baking pan. Allow to cool completely, then cut into 12 bars. (I cut once down the middle of the pan, then made 5 cuts across the pan.)
For storage: Wrap the bars individually in plastic wrap. They are best the first week, but will keep at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. For longer storage, refrigerate them for up to a month.
