Ingredients
- 2 cup mixed nuts, such as almonds, walnuts, pecans, peanuts, hazelnuts or pistachios
- 1 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup mixed seeds, such as pumpkin, sunflower or sesame
- 125 gram butter
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
- 1/4 cup golden syrup
Method
-
1Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a 23cm x 33cm baking pan (or similar) with baking paper.
-
2Roughly chop the nuts (see recipe tip) and place in a large bowl along with the rolled oats and seeds.
-
3Place butter, brown sugar and golden syrup in a small saucepan. Stir over a medium heat until the butter has melted. Pour into the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly.

4Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven for about 20 minutes until golden all over. Leave for a few minutes before marking into bars or squares. Cool completely before removing and slicing
Notes
- Place the nuts in a food processor and pulse a few times to chop roughly (not too fine, you want a mixture of ground and bigger pieces). PER SERVE: Energy: 264 kcal, 1104kj Fat: 19g Saturated fat: 6g Cholesterol: 16mg, Carbohydrate: 18g, Fibre: 3g, Sodium: 52mg
