Ingredients

3 cups crispy rice cereal

3 cups toasted oat cereal

1 1/2 cups raisins

1/2 cup unsalted sunflower seeds

1 cup honey

3/4 cup sugar

1 (16 ounce) jar chunky peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the crispy rice cereal, toasted oat cereal, raisins, and unsalted sunflower seeds. Toss gently to mix evenly.

  3. In a medium saucepan, combine the honey and sugar. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture comes to a boil.

  4. Remove the pan from heat. Stir in the chunky peanut butter and vanilla extract until the peanut butter is completely melted and the mixture is smooth.

  5. Pour the warm peanut butter mixture over the cereal mixture and stir vigorously until all the cereal and dried fruit are evenly coated.

  6. Transfer the mixture to a greased 13x9 inch baking pan. Using greased hands or the back of a spatula, press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan.

  7. Allow the bars to cool completely at room temperature for at least 30 minutes until firm, then cut into 28 squares. Store in an airtight container.
