# Components:
→ Main
01 - 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
02 - 1 cup roasted unsalted almonds, coarsely chopped
03 - 1/4 cup honey
04 - 1/4 cup light brown sugar, packed
05 - 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
06 - 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
07 - 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
# Method steps:
01 - Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment paper, allowing overhang for easy removal, and lightly grease the parchment.
02 - Toss rolled oats and chopped almonds together in a large mixing bowl until evenly distributed.
03 - In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter, honey, and brown sugar, stirring frequently until sugar dissolves and the mixture lightly bubbles, about 2 minutes.
04 - Remove syrup base from heat and stir in vanilla extract and sea salt until fully incorporated.
05 - Pour the warm syrup over oat nut mixture and use a spatula to blend until every ingredient is coated.
06 - Transfer mixture into prepared pan. Press firmly with the back of a flat spatula to create even density throughout.
07 - Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 18-20 minutes, or until golden around the edges. Remove from oven and cool completely in pan.
08 - Once fully cooled, lift bars out using parchment overhang and cut into 12 rectangles with a sharp knife.
