Ingredients
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup oats
1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey)
1/4 cup almond butter (or peanut butter)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
In a large bowl, mix together almond flour, oats, maple syrup, almond butter, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth and evenly combined.
Stir in the melted coconut oil until fully incorporated.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan, pressing it down firmly and evenly.
Sprinkle sliced almonds on top and gently press them into the surface.
Bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the edges are golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before slicing into 9 squares.
Notes
Add-ins like mini chocolate chips, dried cranberries, or chopped dates are great for variety.
Stir in chia seeds or sunflower seeds for added crunch and nutrition.
For a more indulgent treat, drizzle with melted dark chocolate after baking.
Store at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to 1 week.
Freeze individual bars for up to 1 month.
