Author::
Recipe type: Sweet treat
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup puffed rice
  • ½ cup pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup sunflower seeds
  • ½ almonds, roughly chopped
  • ½ cup sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla powder
  • ½ cup Rice Malt Syrup
Method:
  1. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius.
  2. Mix all the ingredients (except the rice malt syrup and vanilla) together and place on a baking tray to toast. They should take around 10 minutes but be sure to watch them carefully to make sure they don’t burn. When they are nicely toasted remove from the oven and place on the bench to cool.
  3. Pour the rice malt syrup into a medium sized saucepan and bring to the boil. Let it simmer until a thin foam forms on top of the rice malt syrup.
  4. Remove the rice malt syrup from the heat. Pour in the toasted nut mixture, add the vanilla powder and stir until well combined.
  5. Using a wet table spoon, scoop heated spoonful of the mixture onto a baking tray lined with baking paper. Repeat until all the mixture is used up. Once you have allowed the mixture to cool slightly (about 2 minutes), using wet fingers gently press each cluster together. This will ensure they don’t fall apart.
  6. Once cooled they are ready to be enjoyed. Store them in an airtight container.
  7. If you like a little extra crunch bake them in the oven for 5 – 10 minutes.
Notes:
Makes 24 clusters
