Ingredients

• 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 cup raw almonds
• 0.5 cup raw pecans
• 0.5 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
• 2 tablespoons chia seeds
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 cup natural almond butter
• 0.5 cup honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal later.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, almonds, pecans, shredded coconut, chia seeds, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a small saucepan over low heat, add the almond butter and honey. Stir constantly until the mixture becomes smooth and runny, about 2 minutes. Take off the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the warm almond butter and honey mixture over the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly with a spatula until everything is well coated.

Step 5

If using mini chocolate chips, let the mixture cool for a couple of minutes to avoid melting the chocolate, then fold in the chocolate chips.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan. Use the back of a spoon or a spatula to press the mixture firmly into an even layer. This step is important to help the bars hold together.

Step 7

Refrigerate the pan for at least 1 hour, or until the mixture is firm and set.

Step 8

Use the parchment paper overhang to lift the granola mixture out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and slice into 12 bars or your desired size.

Step 9

Store the bars in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
