Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup flaxseed meal
- 2 tablespoons chia seeds
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons blueberry matcha powder
- 1/2 cup dried blueberries
- 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, almond flour, flaxseed meal, chia seeds, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate medium bowl, mix the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, egg, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Add the blueberry matcha powder and almond milk to the wet ingredients and whisk until the color is uniform.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Fold in the dried blueberries.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden brown and the center is set.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.
- Cut into 10 even bars. Store leftovers in an airtight container.
Notes
- For an extra boost of flavor, add 1/4 teaspoon of lemon zest to the wet ingredients.
- If you prefer a sweeter bar, increase the maple syrup by one tablespoon.
- These bars freeze well for up to three months; wrap individual servings before freezing.
