Homemade Fruit And Seed Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Cut two (12x8-inch) sheets of cooking parchment paper. Place one sheet in 8-inch pan, allowing paper to hang outside of two sides of pan; place other sheet on top so it hangs outside of other two sides of pan.
• In medium bowl, mix Base ingredients until soft crumbly dough forms. Press in bottom of pan. Bake 16 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in small bowl, beat honey and eggs with whisk. Stir in remaining topping ingredients. Pour over base.
• Bake 18 to 23 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely, about 1 hour. Remove by lifting paper edges. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 2 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/fan 140C/gas 3. Gently heat the sugar, golden syrup and butter in a pan until the sugar and butter have both melted. Stir the oats, raisins, walnuts, seeds and cranberries into the pan until coated in the butter.
• Spoon half the oaty mix into a traybake tin (23 x 23cm or thereabouts). Scatter the apricots over the top, then top with the remaining oat mix. Pack the mix down well and smooth with the back of a metal spoon. Bake for 35 mins or until dark golden. Leave to cool completely before cutting into 16 bars with a sharp knife.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F. Lightly coat a 13x9" pan with nonstick spray and line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on both long sides; spray parchment.
• Pulse 3/4 cup fruit and 1/2 cup hot water in a food processor until smooth and incorporated, 3-4 minutes. Add honey, almond butter, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla and pulse until combined, about 15 seconds. Add 1/2 cup oats and pulse until well combined, 30-45 seconds. Add pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, coconut, and remaining 1 cup oats and 1/2 cup fruit. Pulse until just combined, about 15 seconds.
• Transfer mixture to prepared pan, pressing down until completely even. Bake granola until darkened, firm around the edges, and the center gives just slightly when pressed, about 35 minutes. Transfer pan to a wire rack and let cool in pan. Remove granola using parchment overhang, then cut into 20 bars with a serrated knife.
• Do Ahead
• Granola can be made 5 days ahead. Keep tightly wrapped at room temperature.
