Breakfast bars

This recipe is from Rukmini Iyer's The Roasting Tin. I make these when I'm going away overnight and I'm concerned that I might get hungry or that breakfast won't be organised.

Ingredients

  • 175g grated apple (I use 2 apples)
  • 75g chopped dates
  • 75g golden syrup (lys sirup in Denmark)
  • 100g sugar
  • 125g butter
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 75g dried cranberries
  • 50g pistachios
  • 200g oats
  • 75g desiccated coconut

Method

  1. Grease and line a small baking tin. Grate the apples and chop the dates. Preheat oven to 150°C fan.

  2. Heat the golden syrup, sugar, butter, and cinnamon in a large saucepan until melted, then add the apple and dates. Stir on a medium heat for 3-4 minutes, then add the cranberries, pistachios, oats, and coconut.

  1. Transfer to the baking tin, smooth and press down well, and bake for 40 minutes.
  1. Cool on a wire rack, and then cut into bars.
