As a snack between meals and on the go: muesli bars always taste good

If you want to eat healthier and don't want to compromise on snacks, homemade muesli bars are just the thing. The alternatives from the shops often come with a lot of sugar and other additives that are not optimal in the long run in terms of nutrition. Since they are made in-house using dehydration, they can be made both vegetarian and gluten-free. Muesli bars that contain cereal flakes and dried fruit are ideal for when you are on the go. These delicious snacks provide immediate energy and are quickly metabolised by the body.

The silicone moulds for making homemade muesli bars are available in a set of 2 for making a total of 6 muesli bars. The dimensions of a silicone mould are 13.5 cm wide, 11 cm deep and 1.5 cm high - perfect bar dimensions for on the go.

The handling
To obtain a firm paste, the pulse function of a blender is suitable for the preparation. This ensures that the ingredients are well mixed, but not too chopped up. Divide the mixture for the bars into the muesli inserts provided and then place in the dehydrator. Press the mixture down well in the inserts. It should form a firm and compact surface. As each dehydrator works differently and can differ in its performance characteristics, the corresponding dehydration times and dehydration temperatures should be taken from the respective operating instructions. Generally speaking, muesli bars need about 10-17 hours to dry at 40° Celsius.
