I adapted this one from the brilliant Good Food 101 Cakes and Bakes. It's designed to feed a horde of toddlers, who are descending on us tomorrow afternoon. God help us.
You'll need:
4oz porridge oats
20z rice krispies (that's actually quite a lot of rice krispies...)
3oz dessicated coconut
2oz sunflower seeds
4oz brown sugar
4oz golden syrup
4oz butter, chopped
2oz raisins/sultanas
2oz dried dates and prunes, chopped
Chuck the oats, rice krispies and coconut in a bowl, and get small biddable child to mix well. Add the raisins/sultanas/dates/prunes, checking that most have gone in the bowl rather than the small child.
Toast the sunflower seeds in a dry frying pan for a couple of minutes until they brown, and then chuck them in too.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter, sugar and golden syrup. Pour this over the dry ingredients, and mix really really well. Line a shallow tin with greaseproof paper, and tip the mixture into it. Press down hard with a spoon, to compact everything. Once finished, let small child lick the spoon.
Leave to cool for a couple of hours, and then divide into bars. It should keep in a tin for a week or so, I guess.
