Step 1
Start by mixing the quick oats, granola, sunflower seeds, chocolate chips, raisins, dried cranberries, and ground flax seeds together in a big bowl. In a small saucepan, combine the peanut butter, honey, and brown sugar. Warm it over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar has completely melted—this usually takes around 5 minutes. Once everything is melted and smooth, take the pan off the heat and pour the peanut butter mixture over your dry ingredients. Stir everything together really well so all the oats and goodies get coated. Then, press the mixture firmly into a 9x13-inch pan, making sure it’s packed down evenly. Let it set for a bit, and when it’s firm enough, cut it into 16 bars. Enjoy!
