  • Servings: 20
  • Preparation Time: 20
  • Oats // 2 cup
  • Sesame seeds // 3/4 cup
  • Almonds, whole // 1 cup
  • Brown sugar // 2/3 cups
  • Honey // 1/2 cup
  • Peanut butter // 4 tbsp
  • Vanilla extract // 2 tsp
  • Salt // 1/2 tsp
  • Dried cranberries // 1/2 cup

DIRECTIONS

1. Preheat oven at 350F, toast almonds, seeds for 10 - 12 minutes. Combine oats, seeds, almonds and dried cranberries in a large bowl.



2. Combine brown sugar, honey, butter, vanilla extract and salt, bring to simmer. Pour the hot caramel into the dried ingredients mixture. Mix to combine.



3. Line foil or parchment paper in the square pan and pour in the combined mixture. Place another piece of foil or parchment paper on top of the mixture and use the back of a spoon or any tool with a flat bottom (I use the measuring cup) to press the mixture firmly into the pan and create a flat surface.



4. Let it chill in the refrigerator until firm.

this was a very simple recipe that allows for substitutions depending on what ingredients you have on hand- I substituted peanuts and chocolate chips for the nuts and dried fruit! And cut out a little bit of the sugar, peanut butter and honey since I added sweetened choc. chips
