Mix peanut butter and honey together in a bowl or stand mixer.

Using a food processor, blend up your choice of cereal and peanuts, until all chunks seem fairly similar in size.

Add your cereal + peanut mixture into your peanut butter + honey mixture.

Measure out flax seed, cinnamon, and cocoa powder and add to bowl as well.

Blend up old-fashioned oats in your food processor until desired consistency (I prefer it to have a few bigger oat pieces, though it’s personal preference).

Add oats into your mixture until fully incorporated.

Lastly, blend up dates + water + honey in your food processor until smooth (may take 1-2 minutes).

Add date mixture into your dough.

It’s optional, but you may also add chocolate chips! (I definitely prefer them with chocolate chips)

Using a parchment paper lined 9x9 square pan, add your granola dough in and smoosh until the granola is packed well together.

Chill in fridge for 10-15 minutes.

Cut into squares with a metal knife (don’t use plastic it will probably break) and enjoy!

I recommend to store these in your fridge. They will stay good for up to a month!
