1. Take 1 cup each of almonds and walnuts. Use a mortar and pastel or a food processor to make coarse meal. Leave some of the chunky pieces to enjoy that nutty flavor in every bite.
2. Add these ground almonds and walnuts in a large mixing bowl.

3. Add 2 tbsp flax seeds, 1 tsp sunflower seeds, 1 tsp pumpkin seeds, 1/4 cup sesame seeds, 1 tsp cinnamon and 1.5 cups oats. Give a good mix to combine everything nicely.

4. Add honey and mix well again to combine. You can use your hand to mix as the mixture becomes sticky and hard to mix with spatula. (the mixture should not be dry, if it is very dry, add some more honey).

5. Preheat oven to 275 F or 135 C.

6. Line a baking tray or lightly oil the baking pan, preferably 9″ baking pan.

7. Use wet fingers to press mixture smoothly into prepared pan.

8. Bake for 45 mins. (for crispy bars, bake for 1 hr). Note: If using toaster oven, bake for 20 mins.

9. Slice when hot, then allow to cool thoroughly before storing them. (after cooled, they are very hard to cut).
