Ingredients:

16oz. jar of peanut butter or sun butter

1/4 of either honey or maple syrup

1 cup of a puffed cereal such as rice, wheat, or millet

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 cup sunflower seeds, toasted

1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted

1/4 cup flax seeds

1⁄2 cups toasted unsweetened coconut

1⁄4 cup chocolate chips

Ingredients:

16oz. jar of peanut butter or sun butter

1/4 of either honey or maple syrup

1 cup of a puffed cereal such as rice, wheat, or millet

2 cups rolled oats

1/2 cup raisins

1/2 cup sunflower seeds, toasted

1/2 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted

1/4 cup flax seeds

1⁄2 cups toasted unsweetened coconut

1⁄4 cup chocolate chips

Directions:

Mix the peanut butter or sun butter with the honey or maple syrup together in a large bowl.

Add the remaining ingredients and mix well to coat everything with the butter/syrup mixture.

Prepare a sheet pan 12x18in by lightly brushing it with canola oil or melted butter.

Spread the well mixed ingredients into the prepared pan and smooth evenly with a spatula.

It’s a stiff mixture, so really push it together, cover with parchment or wax paper and roll it into place with a rolling pin.

Chill or freeze before cutting into squares.
