Honey and Oats Granola Bars

300g Oats

20g Rice Krispies

90g Nutty Wheat Flour

25g Brown Sugar

¾ tsp Bicarbonate of Soda

¾ Salt

230g Honey

70g Coconut Oil

2 tsp Vanilla Essence

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C and prepare a shallow baking tray.

2. Mix all the dry ingredients.

3. Melt the coconut oil and mix with the honey and vanilla.

4. Pour over the dry ingredients and work through gently until all moistened.

5. Spread out evenly onto the prepared baking tray and use another tray to compress the mixture. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes depending on the crispness you desire. The longer the time the crisper your bars will be.

6. Remove from the oven and use the second tray again to compact the solid bars. Allow to cool for approximately 15 before turning out onto a chopping board. 

7. Cool for a further 5 minutes and cut into twelve even bars.
