Instructions
- Mix the dry ingredients in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine the wet ingredients and stir well. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix well. We find it is faster to use your hands to fully combine.
- Lay the mixture onto a lined baking tray and spread it out evenly, pressing down firmly to ensure it all sticks together. Don't worry if there is not enough to fully cover the tray, the mixture doesn't move when baking and retains it's shape.
- Bake in the oven at 150 degress celsius for 35 minutes. This lower temperature is to protect the nutrients from being damaged by the heat.
- Remove from the oven and and whilst still warm, run a sharp knife through the bars to cut to desired shapes. Allow to cool in the tray.
