Inspiration


I am sorry for my absence. Life has just been so hectic the last few months and having any time to sit down and spend time on my blog has been a luxury. But I am back, and hopefully will be able to stay on track and post some great recipes for you to try!

First up is a recipe I have made over and over the last few weeks. It's for a healthy muesli slice. It is so easy to make and very easy to eat...so lovely with a cup of tea.



Muesli slice

15 squares
Ingredients

* 50g butter
* 110g (1/2 cup) raw sugar
* 60ml (1/4 cup) honey
* 125 gms pepitas (pumpkin seeds)
* 1 Sanitarium Weet-bix, crushed
* 90g (1/2 cup) sultanas
* 50g (1/2 cup) rolled oats
* 75g (1/2 cup) self-raising flour


Method

1.Preheat oven to 170°C. Line a 20cm (base measurement) square cake pan with non-stick baking paper. Place the butter, sugar and honey in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.

2.Combine the pepitas, Weet-bix, sultanas, oats and flour in a large bowl. Add the butter mixture and stir until combined.

3. Spoon the mixture into the lined pan and use the back of a spoon to smooth the surface. Bake in oven for 25 minutes or until golden. Set aside in the pan for 30 minutes to cool completely. Cut into slices to serve.
