1 tsp cinnamon 
½ cup tahini*
¼ cup maple syrup*

Method:

Preheat your oven to 180 degrees.

To a high speed blender, add the oats, pumpkin seeds and walnuts.

Pulse about 10-15 times until everything is broken down slightly but small chunks still remain.

Transfer to a large mixing bowl then stir in the cinnamon, salt, vanilla, maple, coconut oil and tahini.

Mix well until the mixture starts to clump together.

Transfer to a lined baking sheet and press down firmly into a rectangle. This will help the clusters form.

Bake for about 7 minutes or until the edges are golden then remove from the oven, gently break until clusters then return to the oven for a further 5-7 minutes until evenly baked.

Store in a jar for up to a week.
