Healthy Homemade Muesli Bars

Instructions

• Preheat oven to 160C and line a medium baking tin with baking paper. Generously rub coconut oil on the paper and set aside.
• In a large saucepan combine the coconut oil, nut or seed butter/spread, coconut sugar, honey and salt and cook on low heat while stirring for approx. 3 minutes until the ingredients have melted, dissolved and combined. The coconut sugar may not fully dissolve and that’s fine. Remove from heat. Add the rest of the ingredients and any Optional Additions you choose and mix thoroughly.
• Spread the mixture into the prepared baking tin and smooth the top. Then sprinkle the remaining shredded coconut and seeds over the mixture and drizzle 2 tablespoons of honey or coconut syrup on top.
• Bake for 20 – 30 minutes until golden brown around the edges and the middle is semi-set. (Check after 15 minutes to see if the top is browning too quickly and loosely cover with baking paper if needed).
• Remove from oven and cool completely in the pan. Lift the bars out of the pan by pulling up on the baking paper. Then transfer to a chopping board and cut into desired sized pieces and remove the baking paper. You can drizzle with a little more honey or coconut syrup before cutting, if you like. The bars will keep in an airtight container or wrapped in baking paper then foil for a few days.
