MUESLI SLICE

Ingredients

2 cups natural untoasted muesli

1 cup self raising flour

1/2 cup dried apricots, chopped

1/2 cup sultanas

3/4 cup brown sugar

180 gr butter

1/4 cup honey

2 eggs, lightly beaten

100 gr milk chocolate (optional)

Method

Preheat oven to 180 degrees and grease and line a 3cm deep lamington pan.

Combine muesli, flour, dried fruit and sugar in a bowl.

Melt butter and honey in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until butter is melted.

Cool for 5 minutes then add butter and eggs to the mixture. Stir until combined.

Spread mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 30 - 35 minutes, or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan.

Meanwhile, place chocolate, if using, into a small heat proof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, stir with a metal spoon until melted.

Spoon chocolate into a small snap lock bag, snip corner off the bag and drizzle chocolate over the slice. Allow to set before cutting into squares.
