Preheat oven to 170°C (fan-forced).

Place all nuts, sunflower seeds and chia seeds into a large baking tray and mix. Bake for 5 minutes.

Add coconut and sesame seeds and mix. Bake for a further 3 minutes.

Set aside to cool. Reduce oven temperature to 160°C.

Blitz approximately 1 cup of the mixture in a food processor until a coarse flour forms, then place into a large bowl with the rest of the roasted ingredients. Add dates (if using) spice and salt. Combine well.

Place the syrup and oil into a small saucepan, heat slowly on LOW heat, stirring until the ingredients are well combined and just bubbling.

Pour over dry ingredients and mix to combine.

Press into a lined 30cm x 20cm sandwich baking tray so the top is smooth and flat. Use a second sheet of baking paper to press down if the mixture is too sticky.

Bake for 15 minutes or until small bubbles start forming. Set aside to cool.
