3 Grain Nut Butter Bars

Print Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups gluten-free rolled oats
  • ½ cup pure maple syrup
  • ¾ cup almond butter or other nut butter
  • ¼ cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup uncooked quinoa rinsed and drained
  • ¼ cup uncooked millet rinsed and drained
  • ½ cup hazelnuts chopped
  • ½ cup sliced almonds
  • ¼ cup sunflower seeds
  • ½ cup dried cranberries
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 9x13 baking dish with parchment paper (make sure your parchment is long enough to rest over the sides - you may need to lay two sheets).
  • Quickly pulse rolled oats in a blender or food processor (you want to leave some texture) and set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, add the maple syrup, almond butter, coconut oil and vanilla and cook over low heat until everything is melted. Mix often so everything is well combined.
  • In a large bowl, add the ground oats, quinoa, millet, nuts, seeds, cranberries, salt and cinnamon. Mix until well combined.
  • Pour the almond butter mixture over the dry ingredients and stir until everything is completely coated. Pour into your baking dish and use the back of a spoon to even out the texture. Bake for 25-30 minutes then let cool to room temperature in the pan. Place the entire pan in the refrigerator and make sure it’s nice and cold before slicing.
