6 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F / 180 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
7 Mix together the ground flaxseeds and water in a small bowl, set aside for 5 minutes to form a gel.
8 In a mixing bowl, mix together the oats, oat flour, chia seeds, baking powder, baking soda and cinnamon.
9 In a separate bowl, whisk together the flaxseed gel, maple syrup, peanut butter and vanilla extract until smooth.
10 Next, add the dried cranberries and wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
