    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup tahini, room temperature
    • 1/2 cup honey
    • 1/4 tsp sea salt
    • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
    • 1/4 cup boiling water
    • 3 Weet-Bix wheat biscuits, crushed
    • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
    • 1/2 cup rolled oats
    • 1/2 cup large seeds (we used a combination of pepitas and sunflower seeds)
    • 2 Tbsp flaxseed (linseed) meal

    Method

    1. Step 1

      Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Line the base and two sides of a square 20 cm cake tin with a strip of baking paper.

    2. Step 2

      Combine tahini, honey, salt, cinnamon and boiling water in jug and whisk until smooth.

    3. Step 3

      Combine dry ingredients (Weet-Bix wheat biscuits through to flax meal) in a large bowl. Add tahini mixture and stir well to evenly coat.

    4. Step 4

      Spoon mixture into the prepared tin. Use a silicone spatula to firmly press into an even layer.

    5. Step 5

      Bake 20 minutes until golden. Cool in pan 10 mins, move to a rack and cool completely. Cut into bars to serve.

    Tips

    • Replace honey with maple syrup, or rice syrup, for a vegan bar.
    • Add some dried fruit and/or nuts for a tasty twist on this classic.
