In reply to Maryanne. Hi Maryanne, a few more tips: make sure the nuts and cereal lay in a very flat layer. Any points where there's a pocket will create a crack = crumbly bars. Also, use a really sharp knife. Hope this helps. :)

These bars are absolutely addictive flavour wise!! However, I am having a time getting them to stay together when cutting into bars. I have packed them tightly, baked them thoroughly and made sure they were completely cooled. I even tried chopping the nuts before mixing, but nothing seems to work. I end up with maybe 6 or 7 partial bars and the rest ends up in crumbled mess. I do just pop the remains in a container and still use them to snack on but I could really use some suggestions on how to keep them intact so I can put them in my husband’s lunch bag.

In reply to Jules. Hi Jules! The bars have a total of 8 carbs, 5 of which are sugar. Hope this helps!

The nutrition info says the bats have 5 gms of sugar and 8 carbs – given sugar IS a carb does this mean the 8 gems of carbs is the TOTAL carb value or do we have to add the 5. Sugar and 8 carb to get the actual total carb value?

In reply to Frus. You know the bars are ready when they have a rich, golden color throughout and the edges have a nice crispiness to them. Make sure not to overbake them, as the nuts will start to burn and turn a dark brown. Hope this helps! :)

How do you know when the bars have been baked enough?

In reply to Letty. You can use raw, I just prefer roasted because of the flavor and crunchier texture they provide. Happy baking!

Do I have to use “roasted” nuts or can they be raw?

In reply to Fiona. Hi Fiona! I haven't tried golden syrup, but I know many readers have used honey with good results. Hope you enjoy!
