Ingredients
-
1 cup
walnuts
-
1 1/2 cups
rolled oats, divided
-
1 scant cups
shredded unsweetened coconut
-
1/4 cup
flax seeds
-
1/4 cup
chia seeds
-
1/2 cup
raw pumpkin seeds
-
1/2 cup
raw sunflower seeds
-
1/2 teaspoon
ground cardamom
-
3 tablespoons
melted coconut oil (plus more for greasing pan)
-
1/2 teaspoon

-
1/4 cup
light agave nectar (can sub honey or brown rice syrup, but sweetness will vary)
-
2 tablespoons
maple syrup
-
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare an 8x8 baking pan by lining the bottom with parchment paper and rubbing coconut oil or cooking spray along the bottom and sides, dabbing underneath the parchment paper too so it sticks.
-
In the bowl of a food processor, add the walnuts, 1 cup of rolled oats, and coconut. Pulse until a fine crumble forms, less than a minute.
-
Transfer the walnut crumble to a mixing bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Stir with a spatula to combine. Transfer to the baking pan and press the mixture down with your fingers, making sure the mixture is firm and even.
-
Bake for 25 minutes until the edges form a golden crust. I rotate after half the time to ensure even baking. Cool completely, then slice and serve.
