Oatmeal fig & tahini bars

1.	Melt figs and bananas using a multi cutter.
2.	In a large mixing bowl combine rolled oats, cinnamon, almonds and chocolate.
3.	In a small saucepan, melt honey in a low temperature.
4.	Add honey and tahini in the fruits and combine.
5.	Bring all the ingredients together and mix well.
6.	Pre-heat oven to 180°C. Line a 25 x 35 cm baking pan with parchment paper.
7.	Transfer oat mixture to prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer. (Be sure to really compact the mixture into the pan—it helps to use the bottom of a heavy glass or metal measuring cup.)
8.	Bake granola bars for 20 minutes until golden brown and no longer sticky.
9.	Let cool, in the pan for 15 minutes, transfer onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
10.	Using a sharp chef’s knife, cut along into long rectangles.
11.	If you like you can decorate bars with melted chocolate and chopped almonds.
12.	You can preserve them in an air tight container.
