Ingredients

1 cup almond butter (smooth and unsweetened)

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup almond flour

1/4 cup chia seeds

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 cup dark chocolate chips (optional, for topping)

1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (optional, for extra texture)

Instructions

Prep the Dish: Line an 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.

Mix Wet Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), vanilla extract, and sea salt. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate large bowl, mix the rolled oats, almond flour, chia seeds, and shredded coconut (if using). Stir until evenly combined.

Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly incorporated. The mixture should be thick and sticky.

Press and Spread: Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish, using a spatula to press it firmly into an even layer. Ensure it’s packed tightly for better structure when cutting.

Add Toppings (optional): If you’re using dark chocolate chips, sprinkle them evenly over the top and gently press them into the mixture.

Chill: Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours to allow them to set properly. This helps to firm up the almond butter mixture.

Slice and Serve: Once set, take the bars out using the parchment overhang, place on a cutting board, and slice into squares or rectangles of your desired size.

Storage: Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week, or freeze for longer shelf life.
