Scale
Line a square pan or baking dish with baking / parchment paper.
Place rolled oats, cashews, dried apricots, coconut, chia seeds and salt to a mixing bowl.
Combine butter and rice malt syrup in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the butter is melted. Remove from heat and add vanilla extract.
Pour the liquid mixture over the top of the other ingredients in the mixing bowl, then mix to combine.
Press the mixture into the lined pan, ensuring there are no holes. Make sure the mixture is pressed together well (can press together with your hands) as this will ensure the muesli bars hold their shape once cut.
Place the pan in the freezer for 2 hours, then cut into bars - I usually do 5 x 5 but you can modify to 4 x 4 if you like longer bars.
