Recipe video above. These are chewy, no-bake muesli bars that will keep for 2 weeks. Cheaper, tastier and much healthier than store-bought, it's also an excellent way to clear out random leftover nuts and dried fruit. Just stick to the recipe ratio of "glue" to add-ins (3 1/2 cups tota

Ingredients

10 servings

1/2 cup (120g) pure natural peanut butter, smooth, or other nut butter ((mix oil in well, Note 1))
1/2 cup (175 g) honey ((Note 2))
1 1/2 cups rolled oats
1 cup sultanas
1/4 cup desiccated coconut (, unsweetened)
1/2 cup almonds (, very roughly chopped)
1/4 cup pepitas
2 tbsp white sesame seeds
1/8 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Steps

Mix Add-ins - Using a wooden spoon, mix the add-ins in a large microwaveable bowl (just in case, Note 4).
Glue - Using a rubber spatula, mix the peanut butter and honey in a saucepan over medium heat until smooth. Once combined, turn the stove down to low. As soon as you start seeing little bubbles around the edges, cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly scraping the base, until it is like a very thick caramel (see photos and video in post). You should be able to draw a path across the base and it holds before closing in on itself. DO NOT WALK AWAY, it will catch easily. (Note 5)
Mix - Immediately pour it all over surface of the oats etc then mix with the wooden spoon. It takes a bit of effort but it does come together eventually. Stabbing and smearing against the wall of the bowl helps. If it gets too thick, microwave for 20 seconds on high to loosen the glue then mix (then it's a breeze!).
Press - Put a square piece of paper over a 20cm/8" square tin (no need to grease). Drop muesli mix in then spread right into the corners, using a combination of your hands and the wooden spoon. Firmer press = chewier muesli bars.
Set - Refrigerate 2 hours until firm then cut into 10 bars (cut in half, then each half into 5).
