| These great tasting energy bars are full of delicious, healthy and energy boosting ingredients like Naked Barley Flakes, Quinoa Puffs and Pumpkin Seeds. |
I’m rather disenchanted with commercially made cereal bars as they’re usually far too sweet for my taste. I decided it was time to develop my own alternative and came up with this simplest of recipes using only the loveliest of ingredients.
Fresh and dried fruit reduce the need for added sugars and fats in this recipe. The energy bars contain no saturated fat and the use of a small amount of apple juice concentrate avoids the need to add more refined sugars.
Crammed full of nuts and seeds, and using naked barley flakes and quinoa puffs - both of which are high in protein and fibre and packed with vitamins and other nutrients - these energy bars are full of healthy ingredients that deliver slow-release energy.
This is yet another delicious recipe from our illustrator Carol Kearns, who also publishes the superb blog The Art of Baking.

This beginner-friendly sourdough bread is a great sandwich bread, inspired by the Danish panini-style rye bread used at Joe & The Juice and the rågkusar rye sandwich thins popular in Sweden and Finland. Slice it horizontally and fill generously with your favourite sandwich filling.
Piyaz is a traditional Turkish bean salad, but in Antalya it takes on a unique and beloved twist. More than just a simple side, it becomes a hearty, flavourful dish in its own right, rich with tahini, olive oil and cumin, layered with herbs, eggs and tomatoes. Creamy flageolet beans form the base, while the tang of lemon and vinegar keeps it bright and refreshing. Finished with fragrant dill, parsley, and a sprinkle of sumac, this is a salad that’s as satisfying as it is vibrant, perfect served alongside grilled dishes or enjoyed simply with good bread.
An old-fashioned classic, upgraded for more plant diversity, more fibre, and, dare I say it, more flavour too! Instead of using just oats in crumble bars, try our four grain muesli base. You can make the crumble bars with either a caramelly date filling or a fresh, tart berry filling.
