Ingredients
Scale
- 2 c Rolled Oats Gluten Free
- 1 c Pumpkin Seeds
- 1 ½ c Puffed Rice Cereal Gluten Free
- ½ c Dried Blueberries
- 1 Tbsp Yu Matcha Powder
- ¼ tsp Sea Salt
- ⅓ c Honey or Brown Rice Syrup vegan choice
- ½ c Tahini
- 2 Tbsp Coconut Oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and spread the rolled oats along with pumpkin seeds on a baking sheet. Toast them for about 12 to 15 minutes until lightly browned and fragrant, stirring a few times to avoid burning.
- Prepare a 9 by 13 inch baking pan by lining it with plastic wrap or parchment paper.
- Transfer the toasted oats and pumpkin seeds to a large bowl and add puffed rice cereal, dried blueberries, sea salt, and matcha powder. Mix all dry ingredients well.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the honey or brown rice syrup, tahini, coconut oil, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and blended.
- Pour the warm liquid over the dry ingredients and stir quickly to coat everything evenly.
- Press the mixture firmly into the prepared pan and refrigerate for about an hour to set.
- Once chilled, cut into bars or squares and store them wrapped in the fridge for best freshness, although they can be packed for on-the-go without chilling.
Notes
- For crisp tops, broil 2–3 minutes at the end
