Tray : 13″ x 9″
Ingredients:
- Quaker Oats plus Multigrain Advantage – 3 cups
- Mixed nuts – ½ cup
- Mixed seeds (like pumpkin, melon seeds) – ½ cup
- White Sesame seeds – ¼ cup
- Seedless Black raisins – ¼ cup
- Soft Butter -4 tablespoons melted
- Melted Jaggery – 1½ cups
- Cardamom powder – 1½ teaspoon
- Salt to taste
Method:
- Grease and line the tray with baking paper and set aside. Also, grease a rolling pin with butter.
- Dry roast the multigrain until it no longer smells raw and set aside into a large bowl.
- Roast the nuts and seeds, separately, until golden brown and add them to the bowl of multigrain.
- Roast the sesame seeds as well ensuring not to burn them as they brown very quickly. Add these too to the bowl.
- To a deep heavy-bottomed casserole on low heat add and completely melt the soft butter.
- Stir in the melted jaggery allowing the jaggery and butter to bubble a little.
- Add in the roasted grain, nuts, seeds, raisins and cardamom powder. Mix well ensuring that they are well coated with the melted jaggery.
- Immediately pour the mix into the prepared tray. Using the greased rolling pin evenly spread the mixture across the tray pressing down and rolling at the same time.
Pour the mixture into the prepared tray 
Roll the mixture with a well-greased rolling pin so as to evenly spread it across the length and width of the tray
- Allow the jaggery coated muesli to cool completely before cutting it into bars.
- Store the cut bars in an airtight container.
- The bars will feel a little sticky at first, which is alright as they will dry out in about 6-8 hours.
Notes:
- Alternatives for:
- Quaker Oats plus Multigrain Advantage- feel free to put together your own multigrain pack.
- Seeds – Roasted flax seeds, sunflower seeds.
- Black raisins – berries, dried figs, apricots
- Cardamom powder – Cinnamon powder or Nutmeg
- Mixed nuts – I’ve used cashew nuts, almonds both cut lengthways in half and whole shelled pistachios. but you can put together any that you like (pecans, hazelnuts, peanuts etc.)
- Grated dry coconut also makes for a nice addition.
- Basically aim to have 4½ cups of dry roasted ingredients to 1½ cups of melted jaggery.
