Toffee Muesli Bars

Posted by at
1/2 cup (115g) butter
1/2 cup (180g) golden syrup
2 1/2 cups (275g) toasted fruit muesli
12 fried apples, diced

Line  18cm x 28cm rectangular baking tray with baking paper.  Melt the butter and golden syrup in a medium saucepan.  Add muesli and apple and stir to coat.  Scrape into the prepared tray and neaten.  Cool in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.  Slice to serve.  Taken from the 4 ingredients 4 kids book

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned trying these out and I finally got around to it last week  They are extremely easy to make which is good and the HOTH and I both thought it was yummy however the kids were not too fussed on them.  My only other issue with them was the fact they are really sticky so for little kids they are probably not a good option.  I will try these once more and next time add more muesli to see if that makes them less sticky.

This weeks recipe is Strawberry muffins.  I am hoping for good things here!!

Linking up with One Mother Hen for open slather.

    Maybe roll them in something like coconut or sesame seeds to cover up the stickiness? Something I haven't tried to make, it will be on my radar in a couple of years when mine are starting school and kindy :)

    might have to try this. having an awful time getting variety for my son's lunchbox. all he wants every day is sandwiches, a muesli bar and a piece or two of fruit!
