Citrus spiced toasted muesli bars are a really quick and simple way to take you muesli on the go or for the kids for a school or afternoon snack. My mum made these for us kid so we could eat a healthy snack instead of junk food. I love that touch of zest, honey and the nutty muesli.
I love to use a healthy nutty toasted muesli for the added protein and healthy fats from the nuts. These muesli bars are incredible easy to make. I grab a big mixing bowl for the dry ingredients and a jug for the wet ingredients.
I take six serves of Eclipse Organics Toasted Nut Honey Chia Muesli and create 18 moorish muesli bars. I grab a couple fo there when I need to rush out and need breakfast on the go. But my favourite time to enjoy these citrus spices toasted muesli bars is for a healthy morning or afternoon snack at work. Love them.
