Anti-LCM Bars!
Recently we came across Naughty Naturopath Mum (AKA Alisha)’s Anti-LCM Bars. We featured them in Episode 17 of The 4 Blades podcast too. Here is our Thermomix conversion.
Ingredients
50g coconut oil
210g rice malt syrup (or thick honey)
10g cacao (or Superfoods For Kidz Berry Choc Chunk Powder)
35g puffed rice / millet / other grain (*please note: this is the measurement for gluten free puffed rice NOT Rice Bubbles. Rice Bubbles are much heavier and you will need a lot more)
90g desiccated coconut
20g chia seeds
(Alisha also recommended using 1/8 cup of coconut sugar, which we didn’t include)
Method
Add coconut oil, rice malt syrup & cacao to Thermomix bowl. Set 3 mins, 80 degrees, Speed 2.
The heated and mixed chocolatey goop!
Add your puffed grain, coconut & chia seeds to the bowl.
Set to Reverse + closed lid position. Give 4 Turbo blasts. Push down the side with the spatula to make sure it’s all combined.
Push into a lined cake pan (we used a 22cm square cake pan) and leave to set in the fridge / freezer.
Cut up and enjoy!

Description
The original recipe for this comes from the lovely Alisha of Naughty Naturopath Mum (great stuff on her site – check it out!) and was converted to a thermo mixer recipe by The 4 Blades. It is a much healthier alternative to the popular lunchbox snacks (far less ingredients!) and much cheaper to make too.
This recipe was also featured in Episode 17 of The 4 Blades podcast.
