Blueberry Cashew & Almond Bars

This is another Granola bar recipe that is on repeat in my rotation of delicious, nutritious and totally necessary mid morning snacks prepared for work days.

This mixture makes a very sticky combination before it is baked, so when pressing into the slice tin I recommend using a silicon spatula or alternatively using some additional baking paper under your palms to push evenly into the pan for baking.
