Gorgeous to eat warmed with a dollop of fresh Greek yoghurt, or pack them up with a flask of something warm to enjoy on a nice refreshing winter hike!

- 50ml water
- 70g sugar

Method
- Preheat oven to 190C.
- Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides in order to make it easier to lift the cranberry bars.

- Remove from heat and transfer to a shallow bowl. Let it cool while you make the dough.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
