Vegan chocolate tahini bars

To make vegan chocolate tahini bars, use a bar of vegan chocolate (non- dairy).

Before you start

Line an 18 cm (7") square tin (or equivalent size) with non stick parchment. Leave the paper oversized to make it easier to lift the slab of chocolate tahini out of the tin.

How to prepare

Melt the chocolate and then stir in the tahini. Add the oats, seeds and raisins and mix.

Spoon the mixture into the lined tin, press into place and then chill until set.

Carefully remove from the tin and cut into portions.

Variations

• Use either dark chocolate or milk chocolate depending on your preference.
• You could substitute a nut butter for the tahini.
• Use different types of seeds such as pumpkin seeds.
• Add chopped nuts such as almonds, hazelnuts or walnuts.
• Use other dried fruits such as chopped dates, figs or cranberries.
