| A splendid diversity of flakes, nuts and seeds goes into these easy granola bars, easily adding up to over 12 plant species depending on the mix you choose. This is a great recipe to make with our Granola Bundles. |
Commercial granola bars can be very high in refined fats and sugars. While sugar and fat help bind the ingredients together this recipe offers a less processed option. Much of the sugar is replaced with dates, helping to stick the bars together and give them a complex caramel flavour. Nutty tahini provides the fat.
Adapt this recipe as you wish with different flakes, nuts and dried fruit. You can switch up the tahini for any nut butter of your choice or add flavours like vanilla, cinnamon or ginger.
I like to wrap these in baking paper and throw one into my rucksack for a day of hiking. I recently took some friends for an unexpectedly long and rainy walk on the moor and was only forgiven because I'd bought along a bag of these!
