Recipe Card
ingredients
- 4 cups quick cooking oats
- 1/2 cup maple sugar
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- 1/4 cup creamy raw almond butter
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/4 cup unsweetened vegan milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl add the oats, maple sugar (or coconut sugar) and salt. Stir to combine.
Step 3
Add the almond butter, melted coconut oil (or melted vegan butter), maple syrup, non-dairy milk of choice and vanilla extract. Stir well to combine. You may need to use a hand mixer to combine thoroughly.
Step 4
Transfer the oat mixture over to the parchment lined baking pan. Place another piece of parchment paper overtop and use the bottom of a small glass to press the mixture down so it is packed tightly.
Step 5
Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature. To speed the process up, place on a heat safe surface in your refrigerator. Once fully cooled, slice into 15 squares and enjoy.
Step 6
Store leftovers in an airtight container in your refrigerator separating the oat bars with parchment paper. In the refrigerator they keep for up to one week. Alternatively, you can store in the freezer for up to three months in an airtight container with the bars separated by parchment paper (to avoid them sticking together while they freeze). .
