Homemade muesli bars……….adulterated from Taste
I had muesli. I had butter, honey and sugar. I put it together to make delicious muesli bars…
No cooking required: Just pop in the fridge to harden.
You need for about 16 slices to feed 45 models or 2 teenage boys.
5 cups of raw muesli (I used the Macro Raw muesli: no added fruit ….from Woolworths)
125g butter
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup brown sugar
Add more if you think it’s too dry!
1 cup sultanas
Or you can make your own mix the instead of using the Muesli and add to the butter, honey and sugar:
1 cup rolled oats
1 cup desiccated coconut
1/2 cup wheatgerm
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup sunflower kernels
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- Pour a glass of wine or ten. Who cares if it’s just muesli bars you’re making.
- Slip into a chic cooking dress: A Jil Sander over sized Tee is perfect.
- Moisturize and line a 3cm deep, 16cm x 28cm (base) baking pan with baking paper. or whatever flat baking tray you can find.
- Find a big saucepan and toss in the muesli. Or a dry ingredients except the sultanas.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring, for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden as a Celine camel coat. And gets a little crunchy.
- Transfer to a bowl.
- Set aside to cool. Stir in sultanas.
- Now cook the butter, honey and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Like your hips won’t.
- Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low.
- Simmer, without stirring, for 7 minutes or until mixture forms a soft ball when a little is dropped into ice-cold water. This is called caramel and it’s sensational.
- Taste t make sure it’s really fabulous.
- Add to dry ingredients. Stir until combined. You can use your hands.
- Taste just to make sure it’s still fabulous.
- Spoon mixture into pan.
- Use a large metal spoon or just your hands to really press down firmly so it sticks together.
- Allow to cool a little.
- Lick the bowl.
- Cut into squares.
- Pop in the fridge in the baking tray so it hardens for and hour or so.
- Store in a foil-lined airtight container in the fridge.
- They say it could last for up to 7 days.
- I know it will last 7 hours.
