Granola Bars...

I made some rather chunky, tasty granola bars last night... here's the recipe, as requested via Twitter...

This recipe is a rough guide - use whatever fruit and nuts you like, but keep the quantities roughly the same.  
 

Ingredients
50g vegan margarine
200g maple syrup ( I use a mix of maple syrup & golden syrup and a generous splash of soya milk, to make up a total of 200ml)
225g oats
50g sunflower seeds
50g pumpkin seeds
50g almonds
50g hazelnuts
200g Dried fruit - your choice (raisins, sultanas, chopped apricots, cherries, blueberries, cranberries, pineapple, apple, papaya,etc. I sometimes add some vegan choc chips too, or poppy seeds, and sometimes a bit of cinnamon)
Vegan chocolate to cover, if required.

Method
Preheat oven to 180C / 350F / gas mark 4
Grease / line 20 x 30cm baking tray / ovenproof dish 
Melt margarine and syrup in a large saucepan.
Add the remaining ingredients and mix together well.
Pour into the baking tray / dish and bake in oven for 20mins or until golden brown.
Leave to cool.
If coating with chocolate, melt the chocolate and spread over the top. (5-6 oz, approx)
Leave to cool, then cut into squares or oblongs.
Enjoy!
