Choc Chip Muesli Slice

I have been trying to find a decent muesli bar / slice type of recipe for a while. This is the first time that I have tried this one and I based it on one I found on the Taste website. To date this I think is the best and easiest recipe for a muesli slice that I have tried. When I cook it again though, I will double the ingredients as I think this will only make into the lunchboxes twice this week!

Choc Chip Muesli Slice Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 3/4 cup desiccated coconut
  • 1 cup milk choc buttons chopped
  • 2/3 cup firmly-packed brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup plain flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 cup canola oil
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 egg

Method:

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line tray with baking paper.
  2. In a large bowl add oats, coconut, choc buttons and brown sugar.
  3. Combine plain flour and baking powder, then sift onto mixture in bowl.
  4. In a small jug whisk oil, milk and egg together.
  5. Pour contents of jug into the large bowl and combine with oat mixture.
  6. Pour out into prepared pan and press mixture into the pan.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes or until the top is golden.
  8. Allow slice to stand in the pan for 15 minutes, before moving to a wire rack to cool.
  9. Cut into pieces and store in an air tight container.

Oh excellent! There are so many muesli bar recipes that have the *forbidden* peanuts or they plain just don’t work. Our school even frowns on chcolate so for me I might try these with cranberries or raisins, thanks!

Sounds good! Thanks for doing the research and test cooking. So many of these things just don’t work as Liss commented. I’ve found a new hiding place for the choc bits so I’ll be able to make these this afternoon as hubby hasn’t eaten my supplies this week!

I will definitely be trying out this recipe. Bought muesli bars have so many additives so I’ve been looking for a food recipe for a while. I’ve tried a few different ones but haven’t found any I’ve been happy with. This one sounds easy and delicious. Thanks

Great recipe. I’ll have to give it a go.

And had to say “SNAP”. We had beef stroganoff tonight too!
