No Bake Seeded Muesli Bars
Making your own muesli bars is a great way to have healthy snacks for work and school lunches. These are super yummy with or without the chocolate topping.
Makes: 16 bars
INGREDIENTS
2½ cups rolled oats
½ cup FreshLife Sunflower Seeds
½ cup FreshLife Pumpkin Seeds
½ cup FreshLife Sesame Seeds
½ cup raisins or sultanas
½ cup peanut butter (or almond butter or tahini)
½ cup liquid honey
115g butter
salt flakes, optional
150g chocolate, optional
METHOD
Grease and line base and sides of a square cake pan, approx. 23cm x 23cm x 5cm deep.
Place oats into a food processor and pulse for 20 seconds, or until finely chopped. Pour into a large bowl. Add sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds and raisins and mix well.
Add peanut butter, butter and honey to a saucepan and heat over medium heat until melted. Pour over the seed mixture and stir until well combined.
Press mixture firmly and evenly into the cake pan using a metal spoon.
Melt chocolate in a double boiler or the microwave (microwave for 15 second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth).
Pour the melted chocolate over the muesli mixture and smooth out. Top with salt (if using) then place in the fridge to set.
Once set, slice into muesli bars. Store bars in a container in the fridge or freezer.
