‘Life is salty, but love is sweet. I hope you enjoy this treat’
Apologies that I have been MIA, I have been a little under the weather since returning from London. Here is one of the recipes I developed for my sister-in-law’s 4pm snacking, whilst I was there.
This is a bar full of ingredients with great natural fat and fibre, keeping you fuller for longer and feeding your brain. This makes it a great afternoon snack. It’s sweet and salty and tastes indulgent.
Before I left for London, I directed my sister in law on this recipe. It took her 10 minutes from start to finish. She loved it as it only used two bowls and no oven.
Ingredients

Bar
- 1 cup Gluten Free Oats

Topping

Method
- Line an 8×8 tray with parchment paper

- Add the coconut oil and chocolate in a bowl and melt the chocolate by either putting it in the microwave for 30-45 seconds or placing the bowl on top of a pot of simmering water. Pour over the bar mixture, sprinkle the sesame seeds over the top and place back in the fridge for 1-2 hours
