Steps:
- Line a 9-inch square cake pan with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on two opposite sides.
- In a large bowl, combine cereal, cranberries, pepitas and flax seeds.
- In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine nut butter, honey, cinnamon and kosher salt; cook just until completely smooth (do not bring to a simmer), 1-2 minutes. Off heat, stir in vanilla. Pour nut butter mixture over cereal and gently, but thoroughly, mix until cereal is completely coated.
- Transfer cereal mixture to prepared pan and press firmly into an even layer using flat bottom of a measuring cup, bowl or glass. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt, if using. Cover and chill at least one hour, or preferably 4 hours.
- Lift bar out of pan using parchment overhang. Slice into 10 even cereal bars.
- Store cereal bars between layers of parchment or waxed paper in an airtight container (or individually wrapped in plastic wrap) in the refrigerator.
CHEWY NUT AND CEREAL BARS
Food editor Maggie Ruggiero touts these amber bars as the love child of rice krispie treats and those sesame candies sold at natural foods stores. They're nutty, both crisp and chewy, and just a bit crumbly-the perfect afternoon snack. Honey and brown sugar lend a touch of sweetness, while egg whites (left over from Orange Pistachio Crescents), nuts, and seeds give the bars protein and chewiness.

Steps:
- Line the base of a 20 x 20cm baking tin with baking parchment. Put the seeds in a dry, non-stick pan over a medium heat and cook until they start to pop and turn golden. Transfer to a small bowl to cool.
- In a medium saucepan, soften the nut butter and honey over a low heat for about 2 mins, stirring continuously, until the mixture has warmed through.
- Take the pan off the heat. Stir in the cinnamon and cocoa powder, followed by the fruit and toasted seeds. Add the puffed rice and stir well to coat. Quickly transfer the mixture to the tin, spreading out evenly and pressing down with the back of a spoon to create a compact, even surface.
- Leave for 45 mins-1 hr to firm up, then slice into 8 bars with a sharp knife. Wrap in strips of baking parchment and secure with tape or string. Will keep in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

Tips:
- To easily measure sticky ingredients like honey or syrup, lightly grease your measuring cup or spoon with cooking spray. This will prevent the ingredient from sticking and make it easier to pour.
- If you don't have a baking sheet, you can use a large, flat plate or cutting board. Just make sure it's large enough to accommodate the cereal bars.
- To make the cereal bars even more chewy, use a combination of different types of cereal. For example, you could use a mix of shredded wheat, corn flakes, and rice crispies.
- If you don't have any vanilla extract, you can use another type of extract, such as almond or coconut extract. You can also use a teaspoon of ground cinnamon or nutmeg.
- To make the cereal bars even more delicious, you can add your favorite mix-ins, such as chocolate chips, nuts, or dried fruit.
