Home-made brekkie bars

Lots of store-bought breakfast or muesli bars are so packed with sugar and other nasties, yet they're a really good way to get wholesome foods into stubborn kids...especially when they're choc-coated as a special treat! Normally, I would make without the choc but my little guy has been off-colour and I wanted to inspire him to rediscover his appetite. Even with the chocolate, they're still a pretty good snack option.

I combined spelt rolled oats, sesame paste, peanut butter, melted butter, honey and a little rice flour in a bowl and baked as a flat slab at low temp for about 15 minutes. Once it had cooled off, I spread a thin layer of good-quality chocolate (the equivalent to 1.5 cubes per bar) and set in the fridge. Once fully set, I sliced into bars and have kept them stored in the fridge.
