Ingredients
- 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
- 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1 oz mini marshmallow bag
- 1/2 cup peanut butter natural
- 2 1/2 cups puffed brown rice or Rice Krispies
- 1/2 cup peanuts unsalted
- 1/2 cup raisins
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries
- 1/2 cup dried apricot chopped
- 1/2 cup sunflower seeds
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 300°F and spray an 8×8-inch pan with cooking spray.
- Roast the oatmeal and the sesame seeds on separate pans for 5 mins. They will be just very lightly browned.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, melt the coconut oil, mini marshmallows, and peanut butter. I microwaved mine on half power for 1 minute, stirred, and then did another 30 seconds. You don’t want to burn the marshmallows, so make sure to use only half power.
- In a separate large bowl, mix together the puffed brown rice, peanuts, raisins, cranberries, apricots, sunflower seeds, and toasted oatmeal.
- Pour the dry ingredients into the marshmallow mix and stir until everything is well combined.
- Sprinkle half of the toasted sesame seeds evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Then, pour in the Rice Krispie mixture and press down HARD, until it forms a compressed, even layer. Sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds and gently press to adhere to the bars.
- Let mixture set for 15 to 20 minutes in the refrigerator before slicing it into bars and serving.
