Do you deserve a sweet little treat to get your energy up? Are you sick of spending your hard earned cash on teeny tiny muesli bars? Look no further because this week we have a banger, created by nutritionist Harriet Lidgard (for more recipes, check out her Insta @harriet_well or website harrietwell.com). Super yummy and packed with heaps of goodies, this muesli bar recipe blows any supermarket version out of the water. These are great to whip up at the start of the week and take into uni for that study grind. Enjoy, academic weapons :)
Ingredients
- ½ cup rolled oats (blended to flour consistency)
- 2 cup roasted almonds (roughly chopped)
- ½ cup dried cranberries (roughly chopped)
- 2 Tbsp peanut butter
- 4 Tbsp honey
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
- ¼ tsp salt
- Chocolate chips to cover (optional)
- Sea salt (optional)
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180℃ and line a baking tray with baking paper and set aside.
- Add the oats, almonds, cranberries, peanut butter, honey, vanilla essence and salt in a large bowl and mix until combined.
- Transfer the mixture into the baking tray and press firmly into an even layer.
- Bake for 20 mins until the edges are golden brown
- Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack until completely cool. Slice into your preferred muesli bar sized servings.
- Once cooled and chopped, melt down some chocolate chips in the microwave. Dip the muesli pieces into the melted chocolate and then sprinkle a small amount of sea salt on each piece.
Store in an airtight container and enjoy a nutritious homemade snack throughout the week!
