| October 31, 2011 | 0 Comments

I made these on the weekend  to  put into lunchboxes this week – very yummy :) You called also exchange the sultanas for cranberries or other dried fruit.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1/2 cup wheatgerm
  • 1/2 cup sesame seeds
  • 1/2 cup sunflower kernels
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
  • 1 cup sultanas
  • 125g butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/3 cup brown sugar

Method

  1. Grease and line a 3cm deep, 16cm x 28cm (base) baking pan with baking paper. Cook oats, coconut, wheatgerm, sesame seeds, sunflower kernels and pumpkin seeds in a frying pan over medium heat, stirring, for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a bowl. Set aside to cool. Stir in sultanas.
  2. Cook butter, honey and sugar in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring, for 3 to 4 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low. Simmer, without stirring, for 7 minutes or until mixture forms a soft ball when a little is dropped into ice-cold water. Add to dry ingredients. Stir until combined.
  3. Spoon mixture into pan. Use a large metal spoon to press down firmly. Allow to cool. Cut into squares. Store in an airtight container for up to 7 days.
