Home made muesli bars - NUT FREE!

For awhile I've been trying to find a nut free muesli bar recipe (since I'm allergic).

Today I decided to just make up my own, and they aren't half bad if I do say so myself!! Thought I would share them here. The best bit is, each bar is only 80 calories!

Jackie's yummy (NUT FREE) chocolate muesli bars:

INGREDIENTS:

3 egg whites
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup rolled oats (I used uncle tobys multigrain)
2/3 chopped dates
2 weetbix (crushed)
1 tbsp buckwheat flower
1 tsp honey

METHOD:

Preheat oven to 160 degrees.

Line a baking tin with foil and give a light spray of oil.

Combine egg whites, cinnamon, salt and cocoa in a bowl. Add oats, dates, weetbix, honey and flower. Mix until everything is coated.

Pour into tin and make an even layer by pressing mixture down using the back of a spoon.

Bake for 20-30 minutes. Leave to cool in tin.

Once cool, cut into 16 bars.
