Instructions

  1. Step 1: Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats, 1 cup mixed berries, 1/2 cup chopped raw almonds, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss gently to combine.
  3. Step 3: In a small microwave-safe bowl, warm 1/3 cup honey and 1/4 cup natural peanut butter together for 30 seconds, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and pourable.
  4. Step 4: Pour the honey-peanut butter mixture over the oat and berry mixture and stir thoroughly until every bit is coated.
  5. Step 5: Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking pan and press firmly with the back of a spatula or fingers to create an even, compact layer.
  6. Step 6: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours until set. Use the parchment paper to lift the bars out of the pan and cut into 12 squares before serving.
