Energy Bars

Ingredients

 60 g Butter
 60 g Honey
 60 g Muscovado sugar
 20 g Flax seeds, ground
 100 g Pumpkin seeds
 150 g Rolled oats
 100 g Pecans or walnuts, roughly chopped
 60 g Dried cranberries, roughly chopped
 100 g Sunflower seeds

Directions

1

Mix oats, nuts, and seeds and bake/roast in the oven at 200 C for about 10-12 minutes (keep watch, so as to not burn them). Once done, transfer to a fireproof bowl and combine with cranberries.

2

Combine honey, butter, and sugar in a pot and put on high heat to caramelise. Add a pinch of salt while bubbling. By controlling how much the sugar caramelises, you can control the consistency of the bars. Longer caramelisation means tougher bars.

3

Pour over the nuts and berries and fold them under. Spread on a baking sheet, and carefully (hot!) press into shape. Let cool for about an hour, then cut, while still slightly warm.
