Chewy, filling, and packed with natural energy, these oaty nutty muesli bars are made with immune-boosting bee pollen, coconut, almonds, chia, and honey. They are a good source of carbohydrates, protein, healthful fat and fiber. Take them camping, pack in lunch box or as breakfast on the go!

Coconut, Bee Pollen, Oat and Chia Muesli Bars

inspired by Donna Hay
  • 80 ml Coconut oil
  • 250 g Honey
  • 180 g Rolled oats
  • 50 g Shredded coconut
  • 2 tbsp Bee pollen
  • 160 g Almonds, roughly chopped
  • 40 g Chia seeds
  • 70 g Pitted dried dates, finely chopped
  1. Preheat oven to 180C/350F. Place the coconut oil, honey and sugar in a small saucepan over low heat and cook, stirring, for 3–4 minutes or until melted and combined.
  2. Pour into a large bowl and add the oats, coconut, bee pollen, almonds, chia seeds, dates and cinnamon and mix well to combine.
  3. Spoon into a lightly greased 20cm x 30cm baking pan lined with non-stick baking paper. Flatten the mixture using the back of a spoon. Bake for 25 minutes or until dark golden. Set aside to cool completely. Lift the slice from the pan and cut into bars to serve.

  3. Oh my..fantastic! What a great idea to add bee pollen.. a real superfood. I just saw it at an organic health shop and I was tempted to buy it. My grandad used to have bees and I had pollen all the time when I was growing up. So good for you.
    Lovely recipe Angie.

  13. I love this Angie. I'm going to be making some granola bars today as well but love the sound of the bee pollen. I've never used that before.

  61. Waw, a truly adapted recipe of Donna hay! I made the original bars & now, I am loving the look of your tasty bars with bee pollen,...that is a tasty idea.

    I happen to have bee pollen in the house & usually only use it in smoothies & in oat porridge with strawberries! These bars look utterly tasty too! xxx

    ReplyDelete
  62. The bars must be delicious and they are so healthy with pollen and chia. I should try the recipe.

    ReplyDelete
  63. These look absolutely delicious, Angie! I love eating healthy, fruity, grain filled bars like this. Such a perfect pick me up in the middle of the day. But I also like to have one in the morning with my yogurt. These are perfect! :)

    ReplyDelete
  64. cute looking bars are great for travel and snacking. I loved the way you packed them into small picks

    ReplyDelete
  65. I started making oat-bars at home recently and really like the idea of having these convenient homemade bars on-the-go. Usually I skip the wet process and instead use quick-cook oats or fine oats (oat bran) with a little water plus peanut butter as the "binding" agent. I also skip the baking step, and just "set" the mixture in the fridge. Of course, they(my homemade bars) don't turn out as beautiful and perfect as yours.

  66. Dear Angie, what a healthy and delightful treat. These sound wonderful. xo, Catherine

    ReplyDelete
  67. How I wish I could grab at least one, so yummy Angie :)

  68. Angie, my neighbor is a bee-keeper and maybe I can get some bee pollen from him to make these incredible bars. Perfect for my long commute to work and back!

    ReplyDelete
  69. I have never heard of using bee pollen before. You have enlightened me. Thanks!
