Why hello strangers!
All I can do is apologise for my lack of blogging in the last month. The most annoying part is that I love doing it when I get round to it and when I get started- I have just had the busiest month ever and have now started full time work so it will be even more difficult but hey-ho... Challenge accepted! On a similar note, I've found it really hard to find things to blog about. Any suggestions or requests are always welcomed!
For this post, I thought I would let you guys know about my spontaneous invention that I have not quite found a name for. They are that good, they need a name! Suggestions welcome again (damned imagination, or lack of it...)
They are great for snacks, and are all completely home-made (which means additive free) and adjustable to suit what you have laying around your house which is always a good thing to hear. I feel a lot of ingredients can be hard to get a hold of or expensive to buy, which is why I love these as most of you will have these things around the house or can get them at a local supermarket for super cheap!
I like to think of them as little bars of heaven. Ha! They are very like Nutri-grain bars in terms of texture and size and handy-ness (They are lovely along with a lunch or a biscuit alternative with your tea!)
Without further ado, here is how I made the little bars!
2- Once blended, pop into a large bowl to rest while you make your wet ingredients |
4- Fold in all of your ingredients together to create a gloopy mass of wonder |
5- Line a large square dish that is suitable for cooking with low fat butter. Excuse my manky photo-bombing foot. |
6- Pat your mixture down with a wooden spoon so that it is equal levels all the way around |
7- Pop it into the oven at high heat for around 15- 20 minutes |
8- Take a 'Me cooking' selfie whilst they are in the oven. This is essential or the bars wont work. |
9- Take your babies out of the oven and leave to cool and slice into little bars! |
And there we have it! Simple, home cooked healthy snack bars in under 30 minutes. They were beautiful, I cannot get over how simple they were to make and that I just made it up out of my own head. If you try to make my bars (or come up with a better name than Emily's Healthy Snack Bars, because that name sucks) let me know because I would love to see you try them!
Have fun and stay healthy!
