Steps

Sequence	Step

1	Preheat the oven to 425F.
2	Combine the oats, sunflower seeds, walnuts and pumpkin seeds on a large cookie sheet and place in the oven for 10-15 min. Make sure you turn the mixture often to even toast the seed and avoid burning.
3	Melt the butter over medium low heat. Once melted, add sugar and honey with a teaspoon of kosher salt.
4	Pull the seeds from the oven once toasted and place in large mixing bowl. Add the wet mixture and stir throughly with a wooden spoon or spatula. Sugar can stick and cause burns to skin so do not handle the mixture until cooled.
5	Place the mixture in a square tray that is the shape you want your bars to be when complete. I put mine in a casarole dish lined with parchment paper.
6	Press down evenly and firmly to compact the granola with the wet "glue" mixture.
7	Allow to cool over several hours. Once cool, slice and store.
