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.
