Instructions
For the Crust
Step 1
-Set your oven to 350* and line a 8x12 in baking pan with parchment paper.
-Cream the butter and sugar in a stand mixer until light and fluffy, then add the yolk and mix on high for 30 seconds.
-Scrape down the bowl and add the flour, salt and cinnamon and mix until it comes together and forms a crumbly, sandy textured dough.
-Dump the dough into the baking dish and evenly press it with your hands to create one even layer.
-pop into the oven and bake at 350* for 12 minutes, or until it is light brown and just barely set, then remove from oven.
For the Filling:
Step 2
-Mix all of the seeds and nuts in a large bowl. If they are toasted already, set aside. If not, toast in the oven while the crust bakes for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
-In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients until very well combined, then add in the nuts and fold in to evenly distribute.
-Pour the mixture over the crust (it's okay if the crust is hot), then pop back into the oven for 25-35 minutes or until the edges are nicely browned and the middle is just barely set.
-Cool completely before trying to remove from the pan, then cut into desired 12-15 even portions.
