Pour 1 cup of rolled oats into a food processor and blend until it turns into oat powder, about 1 minute.

Add 3/4 cup of rolled oats to the oat powder.

Add 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of dried apricots (or 65 grams) to the mixture.

Add 1/4 cup of raisins, 1/4 cup of ground flaxseed, 1/4 cup of unsalted sunflower seeds, 1/4 cup of shredded coconut, 1/4 cup of uncooked quinoa, and 2 tablespoons of chia seeds.

Add 1/4 cup of baking soda and pulse until the apricots and raisins are in tiny bits, resulting in a crumbly mixture.

Add wet ingredients: 1/4 cup of honey (spray measuring cup with nonstick spray), 1/4 cup of melted butter, 1/4 cup of canola oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Blend the mixture until it forms a thick dough.

Lightly grease a mini muffin tin and scoop the dough into each hole, filling to the top and pressing down to flatten.

Bake in a 350°F oven for 10-12 minutes.

Let cool completely in the muffin tin before removing.
