Nut-Free Muesli Bars
Servings: 10 bars
Rate the Recipe:
Looking for a nutritious and tasty snack? Packed full of oats, sunflower seeds, and dried fruits, the nut-free muesli bars provide the perfect balance between health and flavor.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup dried fruits (strawberries, cranberries, blueberries, and goji berries)
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla essence
Instructions
- To begin, in a large bowl, mix together rolled oats, dried fruits, and sunflower seeds. Keep aside.
- Grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper. I have used an 8"x8" square dish.
- Melt butter, honey, and sugar in a pan over medium heat. Add in vanilla essence. Simmer for 1-2 minutes,
- Pour this mixture over the dry ingredients and mix until well combined.
- Now, spread this mixture into the greased/lined dish. Flatten and press it down firmly with a spatula to ensure the bars stick together.
- Refrigerate for 2-3 hours until set. Remove from the dish and slice it into bars.
- The nut-free muesli bars are ready to enjoy.
Notes
- My kitchen is a nut-free kitchen. If you want to add nuts to the muesli bars, reduce the quantity of the other ingredients accordingly. The mixture should amount to two cups.

Easy, nutritious and yummy! I must make this, as I need to get out of eating biscuits and rusks. They are so tempting but not good for me. This bar suits the calorie count too.

My kids will surely love these! Will try them out.

I love it! Since my family has no nut allergy, I think it should be OK to add some just to increase the nutrition quotient. My daughter keeps asking me to make these bars to carry for snacking, this recipe is just in time for making that.

Aunty I love this healthy recipe. I would add a few different types of nuts too, as I love to eat nuts for their taste and crunch. Thanks for such an easy, pissy, healthy recipe. Can you tell me how many days we can keep these bars for eating?
February 17, 2024 @ 5:39 pm
wow such a simple and easy recipe! Even non cooks like me should be able to do this! I am assuming that it would be okay to substitute brown sugar with jaggery powder?

I’ve heard great things about homemade muesli bars, and this nut-free version looks delicious. I’m intrigued to try them!
February 18, 2024 @ 3:02 pm
Wow maam, this recipe is so simple and easy! Even people who aren’t very good at baking, like me, should be able to make it. My daughter, who isn’t a big fan of sweets, will probably enjoy this too. Thanks for sharing this easy recipe.

I have never eaten a protein bar before as it doesn’t look appetising to me. But your bar looks yummy Madhu Ma’am… lustrous and tempting. I feeling like biting into it right away…

Madhu mam, I never eat Museli. But I want to try this bar. Easy, simple and healthy. Apart from peanut chiikki I didn’t eat any bars. But it looks tasty.

This is such am aamazing recipe and so simply and easily doable thanks to you ma’am. I was aways on the lookout for healthy and nutritious homemade snack bars for myself and the kids instead of the readymade ones available in the market. Will surely make them.

I’ve only ever seen (only consumed a couple of times) such bars in superstores and would never have fathomed that they can be made so easily at home as well. Kudos to you for bringing such recipes out Madhu ji. This looks super simple and healthy as well. Will be trying out for sure

Madhuji, I adore this nutritious recipe. I’d include various nuts for added flavor and crunch, as I’m fond of them. Thank you for sharing such a simple, hassle-free, healthy recipe. Could you also advise how long these bars can be stored
March 5, 2024 @ 8:52 am
Thank you so much Harjeet. They can be stored in the fridge for about two weeks 😊
February 18, 2024 @ 8:00 pm
This is so tempting. I would like to try this out for my kids.
February 18, 2024 @ 9:13 pm
New age brands would charge you 100 bucks a piece for the same thing. This is indeed a recipe worth following.

Thank you so much. Do try it out
February 18, 2024 @ 11:10 pm
I make these kind of bars for my kids but end up eating more myself! They’re healthy and make a great pre-workout snack. I like to add cashews, walnuts and almonds to them. 🙂
March 5, 2024 @ 9:03 am
Thank you so much. We don’t add because of allergies 😊
February 19, 2024 @ 12:05 am
I did not know that it is this easy to make! I will try this out.
Why did you say your kitchen is nut free? allergies or health science?
March 5, 2024 @ 9:00 am
Thank you so much. Do try it out. It is because of allergies 😊
February 19, 2024 @ 12:41 am
Wow a healthy snacking option. I will also try adding some nuts for the extra crunch. Thanks for sharing
