While the oats are toasting, chop a handful of walnuts and almonds. Toast them in a separate pan until golden brown, then add the sunflower seeds for an extra crunch.
Combining the Ingredients
Once the nuts and seeds are toasted to perfection, mix them with the toasted oats in the pan. Keep the heat low and add the dried blueberries (or cranberries) for a burst of fruity flavor.
Sweetening Naturally
Pour in the cane honey (or maple syrup) to bind the ingredients together. Stir continuously to evenly distribute the sweetness throughout the mixture.
Setting and Cutting
Transfer the mixture into a rectangular mold lined with baking paper. Press it down firmly to create a compact layer. Place the mold in the refrigerator for at least 5 hours to allow the bars to set.
Health Benefits
