High-Fibre Berry Psyllium Breakfast Bars – On-The-Go Fuel

Chewy breakfast bars packed with oats (or grain-free alternatives), seeds, berries and psyllium for sustained energy. These slice cleanly and travel well in lunchboxes or gym bags.

Ingredients (16 bars)

Dry ingredients

1 ½ cups certified gluten-free rolled oats (or 1 cup coconut flakes + ½ cup seeds for grain-free)
½ cup almond meal
2 tbsp ORGANIC INDIA Organic Whole Husk Psyllium
¼ cup shredded coconut
¼ cup chopped raw nuts (almonds, pecans)
¼ cup mixed seeds (sunflower, pumpkin, chia)
½ tsp cinnamon
¼ tsp sea salt

Wet ingredients

1 large ripe banana, mashed (~½ cup)
¼ cup maple syrup or brown rice syrup
¼ cup melted coconut oil
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup fresh or frozen mixed berries

Step-by-step method

Preheat oven to 180°C (fan 160°C). Line 20 x 20 cm square pan with baking paper overhanging sides.
Mix all dry ingredients in large bowl.
In separate bowl, whisk mashed banana, syrup, coconut oil and vanilla until smooth.
Add wet to dry ingredients, stir well to combine, then gently fold through berries.
Press mixture firmly into prepared pan using wet spoon or lightly oiled hands.
Bake 22–28 minutes until edges are golden and centre feels set when pressed.
Cool in pan completely (2+ hours) before lifting out and slicing into 16 bars.

Why this ingredient?

Psyllium husk provides the "chew" and binding that keeps breakfast bars from crumbling in your bag. Combined with oats/seeds and berries, it creates satisfying texture while boosting dietary fibre content significantly.
