1 tablespoon tahini
1 egg, lightly whisked
Method:
Preheat oven to 180C. Grease a 3cm-deep, 26 x 16cm (base measurement) slice pan. Line the base and 2 long sides with baking paper, allowing the sides to overhang. Combine the oats, dried apricot, dried apple, sultanas, almond or macadamia, sunflower seeds and cinnamon in a large bowl.
Combine the banana, tahini and egg in a small bowl. Add to the oat mixture. Stir until well combined. Spoon into the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the surface. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and firm to touch. Use a sharp knife to score the slice into 24 squares. Set aside in the pan to cool completely. Cut into pieces.
