Cheap as ... muesli bars

This recipe was originally from the failsafe diet - cookbook or website.

I have to share this as it is so quick and easy, even if you don't follow a specific diet you could make them and add some chocolate or dried fruit or nuts to taste (though you might want to take out some of the dry ingredients if you do add anything as they're likely to crumble).  Best of all they are CHEAP!!!!!!

MIX:
2 cups rolled oats (or quick oats)
1 cup flour
1/2 cup sugar

MELT:
150g butter

STIR:
1 Tbs golden syrup (honey could be used if you're not going failsafe) into the melted butter

MIX:
wet with dry

PAT:
into slice try

BAKE:
in 200 degrees C for approx 15min

SLICE:
into bars WHILE HOT then allow to cool before removing from tray - this will prevent crumbling.

ENJOY!

As a side note for the budget conscious (and who here isn't?) - store in an air tight container and don't discard any of the crumbly bits, they're great for sprinkling on top of canned fruit (soft pears if you're following failsafe) and maybe some ice-cream for a quick, cheap and yummy dessert!
