Wholesome breakfast bars packed with oats, nuts, seeds, and berries, perfect for busy mornings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup chopped almonds
  • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tablespoons chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. Combine rolled oats, chopped almonds, sunflower seeds, honey, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Stir until well mixed.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create an even base.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, until the top is lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly.
  5. Prepare the berry topping while the base is baking by combining mixed berries, chia seeds, and maple syrup in a saucepan.
  6. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries soften and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
  7. Spread the berry topping evenly over the cooled base.
  8. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan before cutting them into squares or rectangles.
  9. Lift the cooled bars out using the parchment paper and cut them to your desired size.
  10. Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Notes

For a vegan-friendly option, substitute honey with agave syrup. Reserve some nuts or seeds to sprinkle on top for added crunch.
