These golden granola bars are kind of a big deal; combining textured oats, aromatic nuts and rich mahogany colored maple syrup. Best enjoyed with some AM Gold tunes and a warm cup of black coffee. Stay classy, my friends.

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°.
Lightly toast the nuts for 8-10 minutes.
Mix together the cinnamon, salt and nutmeg in a small bowl. Melt the stick of butter on low heat in a small saucepan.
In a large bowl, toss the oats with the melted butter and spice mix. Spread the mixture out on 2 baking sheets and toast in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, shaking the pan twice and making sure they don't burn. Remove from the oven and set aside.
Reduce the heat to 325°.
In a medium saucepan, combine the brown sugar, maple syrup, and honey. Heat the mixture slowly, stirring until all combined and the sugar has melted. Stir in the vanilla.
Toss together the toasted oats, nuts and flax seeds. Slowly pour in the warm syrup mixture, stirring as you pour. Toss the mixture to fully incorporate the syrup.
Line 1 baking sheet with parchment paper and evenly press the mixture into the pan. Cover the pan with another sheet of parchment paper and use it to smooth out the mixture. Once even and smooth, remove the top sheet.
