I found this recipe a while ago and have adapted it with each baking. Unfortunately I can not find the original source of the recipe.

This was one of the snacks I pre prepared for my recent snow trip to provide me with nutritious goodness and energy throughout the action packed days.

Gluten free, dairy free, high in fibre and all natural – definitely beats most store bought protein bars.

They are a winner by everyone in my house and those who visit!

Recipe:

Dry ingredients:

1/2 cup quinoa flakes

1/2 cup shredded coconut

2 tbs psyllium husk

2 tbs pepitas

2 tbs sesame seeds

1/2 cup chopped almonds and/ or walnuts

1 tsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp baking soda

Wet ingredients:

2 tbs nut butter

3 tbs honey

1 tbs vanilla extract

2 tbs almond milk

1 mashed banana

Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees. Line a baking tray with baking paper.

Mix all the wet ingredients together in a medium bowl. Mix all the dry ingredients together in a large bowl.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix thoroughly. If the mixture is to dry add a little more milk, if too moist add more quinoa flakes.

Spread mixture into the tray so slice is about 2 cm thick. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until slice is lightly golden on top.

Allow to cool and then cut into desired bar size.

Enjoy!
