  • ⅔ cup150 gAlmond butter, no salt addedwell stirred
  • ¼ cup90 gHoney
  • ¼ cup packed60 gBrown sugarpacked

  • ¾ tsp2 gGround cinnamon

Steps

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, leaving an overhang, and lightly grease the parchment with a little of the butter.
  2. Spread the oats and the almonds on a baking sheet and toast for 8 minutes, stirring once, until fragrant. Set aside about one quarter of the toasted almonds for the topping; the remaining three quarters go into the batter.
  3. Melt the butter. In a large bowl, whisk the melted butter with the almond butter, honey and brown sugar until smooth.
  4. Whisk in the egg and the vanilla until glossy.
  5. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda and salt.
  6. Add the flour mixture to the almond butter mixture, then fold in the toasted oats and the three quarters of the almonds set aside for the batter until evenly coated.
  7. Press the batter firmly and evenly into the prepared pan, then scatter the reserved quarter of the almonds over the top and press them in lightly.
  8. Bake for 20 to 24 minutes, until the edges are golden and a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
  9. Cool in the pan on a rack for at least 40 minutes so the bars set, then lift out by the parchment and cut into 12 bars.
