Ingredients
- 1 cup Almond flour
- 1 cup Whole rolled oats
- 0.5 cup Raw almonds, chopped
- 0.25 cup Maple syrup

- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder

- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 tablespoon Chia seeds

Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8 inch baking pan with non-stick spray or line it with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, rolled oats, chopped almonds, baking powder, baking soda, chia seeds, and ground cinnamon. Stir until well combined.
Step 3
In another bowl, whisk together the applesauce, maple syrup, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan and spread it evenly using the back of a spoon or a spatula.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Allow the almond bars to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 8
Once cooled, slice into 12 squares or bars. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
