I made these for my husband after cereal and nut bars. He often hikes, and the original describes these honey bars as quickly absorbed, calorie-rich and convenient in a backpack. Delicious for non-hikers and sportspeople too.

Do I have all the ingredients?

0 steps completed out of 9

  1. Step 1 of 9

    I lightly toast sesame seeds in a large pan, stirring often; over-browning makes them bitter.

  2. Step 2 of 9

    I put sugar and honey in a heavy-based pan.

  3. Step 3 of 9

    I gently melt and boil until slightly amber.

  4. Step 4 of 9

    I add sesame seeds.

  5. Step 5 of 9

    I stir and cook briefly.

  6. Step 6 of 9

    I quickly spread on baking paper on the worktop into a rectangle with a spatula.

  7. Step 7 of 9

    I cover with another sheet and roll about half a cm thick.

  8. Step 8 of 9

    I cut regular bars before cooling, otherwise they harden and break. I leave to cool.

  9. Step 9 of 9

    Once cold, I wrap individually in transparent food wrapping and keep in a tin. The photo also shows my other bars, recipe on the blog.
