I'm big on snacking.....

Speedy Snack Bars......  for hungry Mums and kids alike. 

This is one of those recipes you can throw together so quickly, using whatever you have on hand in the pantry - a great option to have while breastfeeding too, as the flax, oats and (optional) Brewer's Yeast will help to boost your supply. 

• 2& 1/4C quick oats 
  
  
• 1/4C ground flax seed 
  
  
• 1/8C coconut oil (liquid measure - OR melted pure butter) 
  
  
• 2/3C nut butter (peanut, almond etc  - OR if avoiding nuts try tahini or coconut butter) 
  
  
• 1/2 C dried fruit (sultanas, raisins, chopped dried apricots or dates) 
  
  
• 1/2C nuts or seeds 
  
  
• 1/2C runny honey (or maple syrup/coconut syrup/rice syrup) 
  
  
• 2t ground cinnamon (optional) 
  
  
• 1TBrewer's Yeast (optional) 
  
  
• 1t vanilla extract (optional) 
  
  
• Good pinch of sea salt 
  
  

Line a loaf pan with baking paper.  Combine all ingredients and mix well - using wet hands press the mixture VERY firmly into the pan.  Pop in the fridge for at least a few hours to set.  Slice into bars/squares - store in the fridge.  If you don't like the idea of dried fruit, add extra nuts and/or chocolate chunks.
