    I have already make this twice. It is so easy to make and so delicious. I used 50/50 butter and banana work perfectly. I also added dates, sultanas and brazil nuts instead of hazelnuts. I will make it again. I also used honey instead of golden syrup.

    I make these every week and use low fat olive oil spread instead of butter and honey instead of syrup. I miss out the cinnamon and the suggested seeds and replace halve the nuts with mixed seeds that you can buy in packets from the supermarket. I also add diced dried apple and cranberries- they are delicious warm, but just a nice throughout the week as a snack.

    Ah! Sorted, just let them cool for a bit longer and they harden up. I'm such a noob at baking.
