Chocolate Chip & Nut Granola Bars

• 3 cups large flake oats
• 1 cup chopped almonds
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 1 cup pumpkin seeds
• 23 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips or 23 cup dark chocolate chips
• 13 cup flax seed (dark)
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon (I use more)
• 1 (300 ml) can sweetened condensed milk
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1. Preheat oven to 325.
2. Chop your almonds and walnuts by hand or pulse in a food processor.
3. Put all dry ingredients into a large mixing bowl.
4. Sprinkle the cinnamon on top.
5. Pour the olive and oil and can of sweetened condensed milk on top of the dry ingredients.
6. Mix well.
7. Line a large rectangular baking sheet (needs to have a lip around it) with parchment paper.
8. Pour the mixture into the pan and press down with a spatula into one even layer (mixture will stick to spatula a bit, I just wipe that off and throw it on top when I'm done).
9. Bake on middle rack in oven for 25-30 minutes depending on the desired consistency.
10. Let cool COMPLETELY before removing them (in the parchment paper) for cutting or they will fall apart!
11. (You can sneak one corner off because they will smell so good.
