Let’s make it
- Line a roughly 20 × 20 cm tin with baking paper. The mixture will make 10 bars about 2 cm thick.
- Preheat the oven to 170 °C. Prepare plain pea protein and chickpea flour.
- Combine rolled oats, plain pea protein, chickpea flour and sesame seeds. Stir tahini and honey together, then fold into the dry ingredients. Add water a teaspoon at a time if the mixture is too crumbly.
- Press firmly into the tin, about 2 cm thick. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the centre is set and the edges are lightly golden. Make sure the centre is fully baked, especially when using chickpea flour.
- Let it cool completely, then cut into 10 bars. Keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
