Ingredients
Scale
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup almond flour
1/2 cup honey or maple syrup
1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
1/4 cup chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, salt, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until fully combined. Fold in the mixed berries and chopped nuts if using.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly into an even layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
Allow the bars to cool in the baking dish for about 10 minutes, then lift them out using the parchment paper and let them cool completely on a wire rack before cutting into squares.
Notes
For added sweetness, sprinkle a little brown sugar on top before baking.
You can substitute the mixed berries with your favorite fruits like apples or peaches for a different flavor.
