1 1/2 cups quinoa flakes
1 cup dried cranberries
1 cup toasted sunflower seeds
1/2 cup toasted almonds, chopped
1/4 cup brown rice flour
1/4 cup almond flour
1/2 cup plain, non-fat greek yogurt (or any plain vegan yogurt)
4 Tbsp. palm oil

1 3/4 cups chocolate chips
1/2 cup toasted coconut flakes

 

Preparation:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Lightly coat a 9 x 13 pan with an organic nonstick cooking spray. In a double broiler, melt 1 cup chocolate chips and pour evenly into the pan to create a chocolate base.
