Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup rolled oats (90g)
  • 1/2 cup natural almond butter (120g)
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts (40g)
  • 1/4 cup chia seeds (30g)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons honey or low-carb sweetener alternative
  • Optional: fresh berries or chopped apples
  • Optional: dried unsweetened cranberries or apricots
  • Optional: nutmeg and a pinch of sea salt
  • Optional: Greek yogurt (plain, full-fat or low-fat) or coconut yogurt for dairy-free
  • Optional: shredded zucchini or carrot
  • Optional: dark chocolate chips (70% cacao or higher)

Instructions

  1. Gather your ingredients and measure them out.
  2. In a large bowl, combine oats, nuts, seeds, and spices. Stir to distribute evenly.
  3. Warm almond butter slightly (about 15 seconds in the microwave) to soften, then add to the dry mix along with honey or sweetener. Stir until everything is coated and sticky.
  4. Press the mixture into a parchment-lined 8×8 inch pan for bars or roll into 1-inch balls for bite-sized snacks.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
  6. Store snacks in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.

Notes

If mixture is too dry, add a splash of unsweetened almond milk or more nut butter. If too wet, add extra oats or seeds. Toast nuts lightly for extra flavor. Avoid overmixing to keep texture light. Chill bars to firm up and improve texture. Can bake at 325°F for 15 minutes for firmer bars.
