Ingredients
150g Gourmet NZ Apricots, roughly chopped
250g packet wine biscuits (or use gluten-free biscuits, if preferred)
1 cup Mother Earth smooth peanut butter
½ cup Mother Earth honey
½ cup Sunflower Seeds
½ cup shredded coconut
Instructions
Line the base and sides of a 20cm square tin with baking paper, leaving an overhang on all sides.
Crush the biscuits in a food processor to resemble coarse breadcrumbs (take care not to crush to a fine dust).
In a pot, melt the peanut butter and honey together, stirring until combined and smooth. Remove from the heat. Add the NZ Apricots, biscuit crumbs and sunflower seeds and stir well to combine.
Sprinkle half the coconut thread into the prepared tin then tip in the crumble mixture. Firmly and evenly press the mixture into the tin then sprinkle the top with remaining coconut.
Chill for 1–2 hours until set then cut into small squares.
Will last for up to one month if stored in an airtight container in the fridge.
