APRICOT AND BRAZIL NUT BREAKFAST BARS
Fast food of the very best kind...
Makes 14
Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4
Chop the dried apricots and Brazil nuts into small pieces of irregular size. Place all the dry ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix well. Next, stir in the golden syrup and orange juice until evenly combined.
Line a swiss-roll tin (20cm x 30cm) with greaseproof paper and spoon in the mixture. Smooth down with the back of a spoon so the mixture is tightly packed and of even thickness.
Place in the oven for 20 minutes, check after 15 minutes to ensure it does not burn. Remove from the oven and leave to cool for an hour or two, then chill in the fridge overnight.
Cut into 14 bars and store in the fridge.
