Ingredients

• 2 cups rolled oats
• 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 0.5 cup chopped almonds
• 0.5 cup chopped walnuts
• 0.5 cup pumpkin seeds
• 0.5 cup sunflower seeds
• 0.5 cup dried cranberries
• 0.5 cup dried apricots, chopped
• 0.75 cup honey
• 0.25 cup coconut oil
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, shredded coconut, almonds, walnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, dried cranberries, and dried apricots. Stir to mix well.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the honey and coconut oil. Stir until the coconut oil melts and is well combined with the honey. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, and salt.

Step 4

Pour the honey mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.

Step 5

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish, pressing it firmly and evenly into the pan with the back of a spoon or your hands. Ensure there are no loose ingredients on top.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges start to turn golden brown.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. This cooling period will help the bars set and hold their shape.

Step 8

Once cool, lift the bars from the pan using the parchment overhang and transfer to a cutting board. Cut into 12 equal-sized bars.

Step 9

Store the muesli bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week or refrigerate for a longer shelf life.
