Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams rolled oats
- 120 grams honey
- 50 grams unsweetened desiccated coconut
- 100 grams dried fruits (e.g., raisins, apricots, cranberries)
- 80 grams mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts, cashews)
- 30 grams pumpkin seeds
- 20 grams chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 50 grams butter
- 50 grams brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, desiccated coconut, dried fruits, mixed nuts, pumpkin seeds, chia seeds, and ground cinnamon. Stir until evenly distributed.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, honey, and brown sugar together. Stir occasionally until the ingredients are fully combined and the sugar has dissolved.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir until everything is well coated and evenly mixed.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Press it down firmly and evenly using the back of a spoon or a spatula to ensure the bars hold together well.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Remove the baking pan from the oven and allow the muesli mixture to cool completely in the pan before cutting it into bars.
Once cooled, lift the mixture out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 12 equal bars using a sharp knife.
Store the muesli bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week or in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
