Ingredients
- 2 cups of rolled oats
- A half cup of flaxseed meal
- Sliced almonds, a half cup
- Unsweetened shredded coconut, a half cup
- Chia seeds, if desired, a quarter cup
- Honey, half a cup
- Firmly packed brown sugar, a quarter cup
- Two tablespoons of coconut oil
- Vanilla extract, one teaspoon
- Coconut extract, one teaspoon
- Ground cinnamon, one teaspoon
- Salt, half a teaspoon
- Five tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and don't forget to generously grease a 9-inch square baking dish for the perfect bake.
Step 2
Now, let's create a crunchy and delicious mix - sprinkle rolled oats, flax seed meal, sliced almonds, shredded coconut, and chia seeds onto a baking sheet for toasting.
Step 3
Pop the oats mixture into the warmed oven and give it a good stir every 5 minutes until it's beautifully toasted, which should take around 15 minutes. Once done, lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
Step 4
In a saucepan over gentle heat, blend honey, brown sugar, coconut oil, vanilla extract, coconut extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves completely, usually about 3 minutes. Then, smoothly mix in the cocoa powder.
Step 5
Combine the toasted oats with the honey mixture in a spacious bowl, ensuring all the dry ingredients are nicely coated. Transfer this mixture into the greased baking dish and press it down to form an even layer.
Step 6
Let it bake in the preheated oven until it turns a lovely golden brown, which typically takes 18 to 20 minutes.
Step 7
After baking, allow the bars to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then slice them into squares and lift them out of the pan with care to enjoy your homemade treat.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Embrace the power of organization: Keep your pantry tidy and well-organized to easily locate key ingredients like cocoa powder and shredded coconut.
- 2. Utilize airtight containers: Preserve the freshness and flavor of your cocoa and coconut by storing them in airtight containers. Bonus tip: Label each container for easy identification.
