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

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 20x20 cm (8x8 inch) square baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

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.

Step 3

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.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 5

Pour the wet mixture over the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl. Stir until everything is well coated and evenly mixed.

Step 6

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.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the baking pan from the oven and allow the muesli mixture to cool completely in the pan before cutting it into bars.

Step 9

Once cooled, lift the mixture out of the pan using the parchment paper and cut into 12 equal bars using a sharp knife.

Step 10

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.
