Instructions
- Place almonds, oats, and cranberries (or other mix ins you want) in a medium sized bowl.
- Heat the honey, coconut oil and nut butter in a small saucepan over low heat until mixed.
- Pour the peanut butter mixture over the oat and almond mixture and stir together.
- Once mixed, transfer to an 8x8-inch baking dish and flatten into a 1-inch thick square.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge overnight or for 2-3 hours. Then, cut and store in an airtight container. Will stay good for up to 5 days in fridge. (I also like to store mine in a freezer safe baggie. When I am ready to grab a bar, I'll let it sit on the counter for 10 minutes to soften and then enjoy!)

Notes
- *Pulse almonds in food processor a couple times before mixing or you can roughly chop with a knife.
- **May sub honey for maple syrup. If vegan, use organic pure maple syrup
- ***May sub peanut butter for almond butter or your favorite nut butter.
- I also like to break up the bars and use as granola!
- Store bars in fridge or freezer (not in pantry or counter)
