CHEWY GRANOLA BARS
Ingredients
200g Oats
50g Chopped Nuts
25g Sunflower Seeds
25g Pumpkin Seeds
200g Chopped Pitted Dates
100g Almond Butter
50ml Hot water
Pinch of sea salt
Method
1. Place the chopped dates in a microwave safe bowl with the water and the nut butter
2. Heat for one minute then remove from the microwave
3. Using the back of a metal spoon, mash the dates with the water and the almond butter to make a rough paste, then add in the salt and stir.
4. Add the dry ingredients and mix it well to form a stiff mixture
5. Cut a large sheet of baking paper and place the mixture onto one half of the sheet. Fold the other half over the mixture and press down to flatten the mixture out. You can use a rolling pin to help get it nice and smooth (or a large glass works well!)
6. Once you've formed a large square of flat mixture, carefully place in the fridge for at least one hour.
7. Remove from the fridge and slice into fingers... enjoy! .
