  • 3/4 cup shredded unsweetened coconut
  • 1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds
  • 1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup flax seeds
  • 1/4 cup quinoa flakes
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 cup maple syrup
  • 3/4 cup honey
  • 4 ounces sunbutter (sunflower seed butter)
  • 1/4 cup molasses
  • 1/4 cup grapeseed oil

  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 24 ounces jumbo semisweet chocolate chips

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
