We spent yesterday in the kitchen cooking. Well, I cooked. Ella licked. We were given all this glorious Be Natural cereal, which many of you know I’m already a fan of. Crunchy clusters… ahhhhh!
So, instead of telling you how far the drool is progressing down my chin as I eat another bowl, I thought we’d go all MasterChef on you instead and create something for snack time.
We wanted to create something like this:
So here’s our version of the Be Natural bars – the Homemade Breakfast Bars.
HOMEMADE BREAKFAST BARS
INGREDIENTS:
3 sachets (35g each) of Be Natural Pink Lady, Apple and Raspberry Porridge
4 ½ cups of Be Natural Manuka Honey and Spice Clusters with Flakes cereal
½ cup shredded coconut
125g butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
½ cup honey
METHOD:
Line a 26cm x 21cm baking tin with baking paper.
With a mortar and pestle, crush the cereal into smaller pieces. In a frypan, cook the porridge, cereal and coconut until light brown. It should take about 5-7 minutes on low to medium.
Meanwhile, melt the butter, brown sugar and honey in a pot until the sugar has dissolved. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes. When you drop a small bit of mixture into cold water, it should form a small ball. This is when you know it’s ready.
Combined all ingredients in a bowl and then transfer into the baking tin. Be sure to push down the ingredients tightly into the tin. Let it cool.
The girls were impatient to eat it, so we ended up putting it into the fridge for a little while. Then cut into squares.
