Ingredients

  • 2 c. rolled oats
  • ¼ c. creamy peanut butter I used salted
  • ¼ c. maple syrup
  • 2 T. coconut oil or butter
  • 1 t. cinnamon
  • 1 t. vanilla
  • t. salt
  • 2 T. seeds such as sunflower, sesame, chia, etc., optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees.
  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the oil or butter, peanut butter, and maple syrup.
  • Heat the mixture just until the oil/butter is melted.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Stir in the cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until everything is emulsified.
  • Lastly, stir in the oats and seeds, if using, until the oats are evenly coated.
  • Pat the mixture into a tight square shape on a cookie sheet (this ensures you will get big clusters as opposed to individual oats, if that is your desire).
  • Bake for 25 minutes, untouched.
  • Cool for 15-20 minutes.
  • Break into clusters and enjoy!
