Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F. Lie an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper to prevent the bars from sticking and making them easier to remove.

In a large bowl combine oats, uncooked quinoa, chia seeds salt and cinnamon. Stir in mashed banana and vanilla. Fold in slivered almonds, pumpkin seeds and goji berries.
-
Add nut butter and maple syrup in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until warm and nut butter is melted. Fold into granola bar mixture until well combined.
-
Pour into prepared pan. Cover with parchment paper and press down firmly with hands or with a drinking glass to help bars stay intact. Bake for 25mins or until edges turn golden brown.

Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars. Cut the bars into 9 pieces if you are having it for breakfast. If you want it as a snack cut into 12 bars.
