- Your fave nut butter I’m using peanut: a generous 1/4 cup (60 ml)
- A splash of vanilla extract: 1 tsp 5 ml
- Mighty chia seeds: about 2 tbsp 30 ml
- Optional: dark chocolate chips but who can resist? A quarter cup (60 ml) should do.
- Just a hint of salt
Instructions
- Fire up that oven of yours to a cozy 350°F (or 175°C for our metric friends).

- Pop in that vanilla extract and give it a good stir.
- Now, marry the wet and dry ingredients. It’s a beautiful union!
- Toss in those chia seeds and give it a hearty mix.
- If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle in those choc chips.
- Press down this gorgeous mix onto a tray lined with parchment.
- Pop into the oven, watch for a golden-brown hue – about 15 minutes.
- Patience! Let it cool before you dive in and slice.
Notes
TIPS Keep ’em muesli bars snug in an airtight jar for that fresh crunch. Maple syrup? A fab substitute for honey! Mix up the nuts and dried fruits. It’s your canvas. Toasting oats? A flavor game-changer. Mix feels a bit off? Drizzle in some more honey or nut butter. SERVING THEM UP Muesli bars + milk = Breakfast champion. Crumbled on yogurt? Yes, please! Grab one with a fresh apple or banana. Snack perfection! Perfect with that afternoon cuppa.
