Apricot & White Chocolate Cereal Bars

Its  a good idea to combine oats with Kellogg's Rice Krispies. These chewy bars provide a good source of fibre, iron and vitamin A and they taste delicious. This is like an unbaked flapjack and is much softer and moister than a normal flapjack. You can leave out the pecans if you prefer. They are very quick and easy to make, need no baking and children will enjoy making these with you. 

If you like you can toast the oats under the grill until lightly golden before you mix them with Kellogg's Rice Krispies
