I am extremely serious about muesli bars. They have to be hard, solid, seedy, not too sweet, a bit chewy and have lots of toasted oats.

What I love about this one is that it’s very flexible, depending on what is in your cupboard.

The original recipe had wheatgerm and pepitas (pumpkin seeds). Include them if you’re inclined. Just sub in whatever you like. Chuck in apricots. Dates. Swap out the quinoa for rolled barley or whatever you have. GO CRAZY. No, don’t go crazy. Follow the recipe relatively closely and it’ll work. If you go totally freestyle you may end up with fabulous granola, who knows.

Grease and line a 17 × 28 cm (6 3/4 × 11 in) slice tin. Or really, whatever size you’ve got that’s not in the dishwasher.

Transfer to a bowl. Put it somewhere to cool where the baby won’t tip it over her head. Stir in the and .

Cook the and in a small saucepan over a medium heat for a few minutes. No, your stirring arm should not be fatigued yet. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to low. Simmer, without stirring, for a few minutes until the mixture is really golden. Let’s say bronzed. Add to the dry ingredients and stir until combined.

Spoon into your pan and use a large metal spoon to press everything down firmly. Cool and cut into bars. If you store them in a foil-lined container they’ll be good for 7 days. Good luck keeping them in the cupboard that long.

Tasted great, but it didn’t hold together as well as I would have liked. I’ll probably experiment with the amount of honey next time.

Super easy. Best thing about this recipe was the recipe itself. Loved the humour of it. Used coconut oil instead of butter and also added coconut flakes. Lovely healthy option (I have however eaten 4!in 20 mins!

Very delicious - as promised not too sweet & lots of crunch. Used pumpkin seeds, chia & oats instead of the barley - very satisfying with less guilt! Thank you

Chia seeds replaced quinoa. It held together well, but I may have added too much honey.

Delicious but I think mine needed more butter/honey. It's a little bit crumbly. It will get eaten but will fall apart in lunch boxes. Made as per the recipe but with only raisins.

Mixture tasted nice, I think it needed a bit more moisture to keep it together as I was unable to cut it cleanly. I have put it in the fridge and will check if it is less crumbly tomorrow
