Ingredients
- 200 grams Rolled oats
- 50 grams Puffed rice cereal
- 60 grams Dried apricots
- 60 grams Dried cranberries
- 50 grams Chopped almonds
- 100 ml Honey
- 50 grams Apple sauce
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving extra on the sides to use as handles later.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, puffed rice cereal, chopped dried apricots, dried cranberries, and chopped almonds, and stir until well-mixed.
Step 3
In a small pot over low heat, gently warm the honey until it becomes very runny. If you prefer, you can also microwave it for 30 seconds instead.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, mix the apple sauce, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt until combined.
Step 5
Pour the honey and apple sauce mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients. Stir thoroughly until all the dry ingredients are well coated with the wet mixture.
Step 6
Transfer the mixture into the lined baking dish, pressing it down firmly and evenly using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
Step 7
Refrigerate the dish for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture has set firmly.
Step 8
Once set, use the parchment paper handles to lift the muesli bar slab out of the dish.
Step 9
Cut the muesli slab into 16 equal bars using a sharp knife.
Step 10
Store the muesli bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
