A Breakfast or Snack that is made of rolled oats with dried fruits, nuts and honey or brown sugar is called a Granola Bar in US and Muesli Bar in rest of the world.
Granola / Muesli bar is favorite snack for, those who do sports, camping, hiking, because of its HIGH Calorie offering.
Granola / Muesli bar can be consumed with yogurt and fruits for a formal breakfast.
It’s my son’s favorite snack during the swimming meets. – To ensure he gets high calorie, without filling the stomach.
Believe me, the most simple recipe, I ever came across is Granola / Muesli bar. Since, we have lots of nuts / seeds in a Granola / Muesli bar, it may take little longer to digest. Hence, we add flax seeds to fasten the digestion.
Here the ingredients list : 1/2 cup of Chopped Almond ; 1 cup of Oats ; 1/4 cup of Sunflower seed ; 1/4 cup of Pumpkin seed ; 1/4 cup of Walnuts ; 1/4 cup of peanuts ; 1/4 cup of flax seed ; 1/4 cup of raisins ; 1/3 to 1/2 cup of honey (up to you) ; 1/2 cup of brown sugar ; 1 egg, beaten (Optional) ; 2/3 cup of butter ; 1 teaspoon of Vanilla
Just combine almond, Oats, sunflower seed, Pumpkin seed, Walnuts, Peanuts, Flax seed, Raisins and honey.
Add brown sugar, egg (if you like), melted butter with the nuts/seeds mixture and blend well.
Transfer the mixture to a pre-greased baking pan and press firmly, so that its sets well.
Transfer the pan into a pre-heated oven and bake at 350°F / 180°C for about 20 minutes.
Allow it to cool and slice them into desired shape and size. Store it in an airtight container.
