The Health Benefits of these Sugar Free Muesli Bars.

1. Almonds
   A powerhouse of vitamin E, magnesium, and healthy fats, almonds are known for their ability to support heart health and keep your skin glowing. They’re also an excellent source of protein to keep you feeling full and energised.
2. Pecans
   Rich in antioxidants and healthy fats like vitamin E, pecans can help reduce inflammation and support brain health. Their buttery texture and mild sweetness make them a delightful addition.
3. Pumpkin Seeds
   These little seeds are loaded with zinc and magnesium, crucial minerals for immunity and muscle recovery. Plus, their crunch adds the perfect texture to these bars.
4. Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
   Coconut is a natural source of healthy fats and fibre, helping to stabilise your blood sugar and keep you satisfied.
5. Monk Fruit
   A natural sweetener, monk fruit is a great alternative for those looking to reduce their sugar intake while still enjoying a touch of sweetness.
6. Sea Salt
   A pinch of sea salt balances the flavours and provides trace minerals your body needs.
7. Almond Butter
   Creamy and nutrient-dense, almond butter provides protein and healthy fats, keeping your energy steady and your hunger at bay.
8. Egg
   Packed with high-quality protein and essential nutrients like choline, eggs bind the ingredients together while boosting the nutritional profile.
9. Vanilla Extract
   A dash of vanilla not only boosts the flavour but also brings its subtle calming properties, making this treat as soothing as it is satisfying.

The Recipe: Easy, Nourishing, and Delicious!

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup almonds
• 1/2 cup pecans
• 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds (plus a few extras for garnish 😊)
