Ingredients
Equipment
Method
- Take a mixing bowl and combine rolled oats, chopped nuts and mixed seeds. Stir well so dry ingredients mix evenly.
- In a small saucepan (or microwave-safe bowl), gently warm the honey (or jaggery syrup) with peanut butter until smooth and runny. Add a pinch of salt and stir.
- Pour the wet mixture over the dry oats-nuts-seeds mix. Add dried fruits if using. Mix thoroughly so every dry bit gets coated and mixture becomes sticky.
- Line a baking tray or square container with parchment paper (or grease lightly). Press the mixture firmly and evenly — use the back of a spoon or measuring cup to flatten the top.
- Refrigerate the tray for at least 1 hour so the bars set well and hold together.
- Once set, remove from fridge and cut into 8 bars (or squares). Store in an airtight container. Consume within 1–2 weeks.
Notes
You can swap nuts and seeds per availability — peanuts + chia or sesame seeds also work. To reduce sugar, use jaggery syrup or less honey. For vegan version skip peanut butter or use almond butter.
