Munchie Muesli Bars

 

Baking with Jag KitchensIngredients:

  • 125g Butter
  • 1 C Raw Sugar
  • 2 Tbsp Golden Syrup
  • 1 cup Standard Grade Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1 C desiccated coconut (if you’re not a fan of coconut, you could substitute this for rolled oats)
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • 1 C mixed dried fruit (such as raisins, currants, dried cranberries, or even chocolate chips!)
  • 5 Weetbix bars or similar, crushed

 

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C and set to bake (or 160°C fan-forced).
  2. Grease and line a rectangular slice tin (approximately 20cm x 30cm) with baking paper.
  3. In a large saucepan, melt the butter, raw sugar and golden syrup over a medium heat. Alternatively you could do this in the microwave in a microwave-safe bowl. Melt the ingredients in bursts of 30 second intervals until the butter is fully melted and mixed with the sugar and syrup.
  4. Once the butter has melted and mixed with the sugar, add the rest of the ingredients.
  5. Mix until combined and then tip the mixture into your prepared tin.
  6. Spread mixture out evenly and press down lightly.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Leave to cool in tin for 5 minutes, then remove and place on a chopping board. Cut into bars while still warm.
  9. Enjoy!
