METHOD
Line an 8-inch square baking dish with parchment paper, extending 3 inches on opposite sides. This will serve as a handle to help you remove the bars from the pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cereal, flaxseed meal, protein powder, peanuts, and dates.
Combine the almond butter and both syrups in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and continue to cook until the hard ball stage, 260°F (127°C) on a candy thermometer, is reached. Stir into the cereal mixture quickly, then spread into the prepared dish. It will cool quickly, allowing you to press down into the dish as evenly as possible with your fingertips. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Grab the parchment paper "handles" and lift out of the dish. Slice into sixteen squares on a cutting board.
