      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Recipe's preparation

    Museli Bars
  1. 1. Preheat oven to 160 degrees celcius and line a slice tray with baking paper

    2. Chop apricots/dates (or preferred fruit) 2 seconds/speed 7 and set aside

    3. Place butter, syrup and coconut sugar into TMX bowl 6 min / 100 degrees celcius/speed 2

    4. Add all remaining ingredients

    5. Mix until evenly combined 2 speed (2 min approximately)

    6. Pour mixture into slice tray and spread evenly with wet hands or silicone spatula as the mixture can be quite warm to touch.

    7. Compress until firmly packed (approx 1.5 cm thick)

    8. Bake in a preheated oven for 15-20 min or until golden on the top

    9. Cool for 10 min before lifting onto a chopping board

    10. While still warm cut into desired size bars - at this point it may crumble a little. Make your slices and then press back down into tight bars. When it cools to room temp the bars will hold nicely!

Tip

Adapted from Amy Smith - Cooks in your kitchen

I have used low GI sugar alternatives instead of traditional sugars and rice puffs instead of poppy seeds.

A REALLY yummy variation is to use organic extra virgin coconut oil instead of butter tmrc_emoticons.-)tthink

I have tweaked this recipe within an inch LOL - If you like chewy just fridge set - if you like crunchy follow the oven directions! I think this recipe delivers the opportunity to do both! Enjoy guys xox

As delicious as any Carmen's bar!

    So delicious, I substituted the dried fruit for medjool dates, reduced to 50g of coconut sugar and added chia seeds instead of sesame seeds. Thank you for sharing.

    Thanks guys for the thumbs up on this recipe. I have read your comments re the crumbeliness and tweaked accordingly. This new recipe has been tried and tested by me many times and I think the key is that once the bars have cooled at the 10 minute mark - slice - and they will be a bit crumbly but press them nice and tight at this point and they will cool into proper tight museli bars. If it still isn't so for you please let me know because HONESTLY the taste is A-M-A-Z-I-I-N-G!!! Please Enjoy! x

  • Hi and thanks for trying my

    Submitted by The Kissell Clan on 4. January 2016 - 20:59.

    Hi and thanks for trying my recipe!!! Ovens can vary a fair bit. I am thinking either the oven was too hot or they were cooked a fraction too long? The pre cooked mixture should be dense and sticky and that's why moist hands are needed. It also needs to be pressed and packed down nice and dense. Either cook for less time or add extra moisture via dash of apple juice or butter or even add some dates. I have had s some recipes go dry when the TMX underweighs the rice puffs because they are so light the scales misinterpret. You could also try less dry ingredients and a handful more fruit pre soaked in juice or water. Will be a trial and error to get it right for your kitchen equipment. Hope this helps? Will be keen to hear how your next batch goes.

    These are just what I've needed for the kids lunchbox. I might reduce sugar by a tad every time I make them...see if the kids notice. Thank you!
