Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Coat an 8-inch square pan with coconut oil or line with parchment paper.
  2. Spread oats, almonds, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, and sesame seeds on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Bake until the oats are lightly toasted and nuts are fragrant, shaking the pan halfway through, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl. Add cereal, currants, apricots and raisins. Toss to combine.
  3. Combine almond butter, sugar, honey, vanilla and salt in a small saucepan. Heat over medium low heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture bubbles lightly for 2-5 minutes.
  4. Immediately pour the almond butter mixture over the dry ingredients and mix with a spoon until no dry spots remain. Transfer to the prepared pan. Lightly coat your hands with coconut oil and press the mixture down firmly to make an even layer (wait until the mixture cools slightly if needed). Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
