Cranberry Almond Breakfast Bars
Ingredients
- 1 cup almond butter
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
1 cup sliced almonds
1/2 cup dried cranberries
3 tablespoons chia seeds
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350ºF. Spray a 9-inch square pan with canola cooking spray.
- Combine almond butter and honey in a heavy-bottomed sauce pan over medium-high flame. Whisk until melted — 3-5 minutes. If your almond butter is really thick, add a little water or canola oil to this mixture to thin it out.
- Stir in vanilla and cinnamon.
- Add in oats, almonds, cranberries, and chia seeds.
- Bake for 15 minutes. Let cool completely and cut into nine equal squares.
