No Bake Baseball Granola Bars with Oats

Instructions:

1. Place the peanut butter and honey in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 20–30 seconds until the mixture is fluid. Stir in the vanilla extract and sea salt.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, and dried cranberries. Pour the liquid honey-nut butter mixture over the dry ingredients and stir with a spatula until the oats are glossy and fully saturated.
3. Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips.
4. Transfer the mixture into an 8x8 inch square baking pan lined with parchment paper. Press down firmly with a spatula or the bottom of a flat glass to pack the mixture tightly.
5. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 60 minutes until the bars are firm to the touch, then slice into 12 bars.
