Step 1
In a big bowl, toss together the granola, bran cereal, dry milk, cranberries, sunflower seeds, almonds, raisins, and flax seeds. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, heat up the honey, brown sugar, and salt until it just starts to boil. Take the pan off the heat and stir in the peanut butter and vanilla extract until everything is smooth and combined. Pour this warm peanut butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix it all up really well. Press the mixture firmly into a 9x13-inch pan lined with parchment or wax paper. Pop it in the fridge for about 30 minutes to set before slicing into bars.
