Apricot Muesli Bars

[Ally]

I've just made these - so easy and really yummy!

Ingredients:

200g butter
200g muscovado sugar
2 tsp ground cinnamon
4 tbsp honey
500g muesli
a handful of pumpkin seeds
a handful of chopped dried apricots

Method:

Heat the oven to 180C. Melt the butter, sugar and honey together with the cinnamon and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir in the muesli, pumpkin seeds and dried apricots.
Pack the mixture into a lined baking sheet, cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
Leave in the tin for 10 minutes, then loosen the edges and turn out.
Slice into squares and serve cold.

They sound lovely, I love apricots - I could make those with nut-free muesli

[Diflower]

They sound lovely - far too yummy
I shall stick to homemade hobnobs

[Workingman]

That looks like a good recipe for tweaking a bit:

Granola instead of muesli
Dried blueberries, cranberries or any dried fruit
All kinds of nuts instead of seeds or different seeds

It is so versatile you could probably do a couple of different flavours at one time just from using the same base.

Just what I need! Now missy can eat nuts, it turns out she doesn't like them, only I now need to stuff them into her like they are going out of fashion! So I'm looking for ways to hide nuts. I hope she likes these. Think I'll try and make some in the afternoon.

Oh I'd love those Ally, but I don't think they would fit into the Slimming World regime.
