Description

Sweet-salty bars full of cereal, cinnamon, seeds, and topped with a creamy SunButter layer. Yummy vegan, gluten-free, nut-free snacking!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (115g) granola
  • 1/4 cup (35g) flax seeds
  • 1/4 cup (35g) sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup (35g) pumpkin seeds
  • 1 cup (25g) crispy rice cereal
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup (125gCreamy SunButter
  • 1/3 cup (75g) mashed banana

Topping


Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  2. Lightly pulse granola in a food processor if it is really chunky.
  3. Combine granola, flax seeds, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, cereal, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl and mix.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together mashed banana and Creamy SunButter.
  5. Add wet to dry and mix until evenly coated.
  6. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper. Transfer the mixture into the pan and press in VERY firmly.
  7. Bake 35-40 minutes at 325°F until golden around the edges.
  8. Remove from the oven and immediately press again to condense. Or ideally place something heavy on top (I used a bag of flour on its side) while it cools. 
  9. Melt together the topping ingredients and whisk until smooth. Spread on top of semi-cooled bars.
  10. Chill the bars 4-6 hours before slicing.
