Nana’s oat crunchies

By Hannah Lewry
8 to 10
Easy
15 minutes
30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 150 g coconut oil
  • 75 g coconut sugar
  • 3 T maple syrup
  • 250 g gluten-free oats
  • 40 g sunflower seeds
  • 40 g linseeds
  • 20 g poppy seeds
  • 1 x 100 g slab 70% dark chocolate, melted

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Melt the coconut oil, coconut sugar and maple syrup in a saucepan.
  2. Add the oats, sun ower seeds, linseeds and poppy seeds and mix until coated in the coconut oil mixture. Press into a 36 x 13 x 2 cm baking tray. Bake for 25 minutes, or until golden. Set aside to cool. Drizzle over the chocolate and cut into squares to serve.

Cook's note: This is the first thing I learnt to make with my Nana when I was a child, but in this version I use coconut oil and coconut sugar.
