Choc Chip Almond and Coconut Muesli Bars

How good do these look? The recipe for these yummy Choc Chip Almond Coconut Muesli Bars was sent to us by Healthy Mummy community member Kimberly Hicks.

Shop-bought muesli bars are usually marketed as a healthy option but all too often can contain lots of added sugar. That’s exactly why Kimberly came up with this recipe.  She says, “My eldest loves muesli bars and chocolate but I’m not so keen on the sugar content and hidden ingredients. We are all fans in this house. If you don’t like your muesli bars too sweet omit the honey.”

The 28 Day Weight Loss Challenge has heaps of amazing muesli bar and snack recipes that are low sugar and perfect for when you’re watching your weight, plus are great for the kids lunch boxes.
