1

Dry roast muesli on low heat until it starts to change color, then keep aside to cool.

2

Dry roast all the seeds and walnuts, starting with flax seeds, adding chia seeds when flax seeds start to puff, then adding pumpkin, walnut, and sesame seeds one by one.

3

Grind muesli to make a rough powder, and once cool, grind the roasted seeds and walnuts mixture.

4

In a large bowl, add the powder of roasted muesli, seeds and walnuts mixture, grated dry coconut, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, and 1 tsp ground cinnamon. Mix all the dry ingredients.

5

Soak dried apricots for a few minutes in lukewarm water, remove the water, and grind it to make a thick paste.

6

Add the paste to the dry ingredients and mix very well. This may take some time.

7

Take out the mixture onto a greased tray, press and spread nicely using the back of a spoon. Keep it to set in the fridge for 2-3 hours.

8

To prepare the crunchy topping, crush some muesli in a ziplock or normal plastic bag.

9

Add the crushed muesli to a bowl, along with some chopped soaked apricots, 1 tsp of semi sweetened choco chips, and 1.5 tsp of raw honey for binding.

10

Spread the crunchy topping on top of your muesli bars.
