Ingredients

100 g butter
75 ml Golden Syrup
175 g rolled porridge oats
50 g pumpkin seeds
50 g sunflower seeds
50 g hazelnuts (crushed or roughly chopped)
60 g dried Apricots (roughly chopped)

Method

Preheat the oven to 180C/160C Fan/Gas 4, and line a 24x24cm/9x9in baking tin with greaseproof paper.
Heat the butter and golden syrup in a small saucepan over a medium heat until bubbling.
Meanwhile, tip the oats, seeds, nuts and apricots into a large bowl. Pour the hot syrup mixture over the oats and mix well to combine.
Pour into the lined baking tray and press down into an even layer. Bake for 20 minutes, until golden-brown.
Allow to cool for 10 minutes, then turn out and cut into 16 squares. When cold, transfer to an airtight container – they will keep for up to one week.
