Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
3 1/2 tablespoons (49 grams) coconut oil1
1/2 cup (128 grams) unsalted natural almond butter (the kind with just nuts and salt)
1/2 cup (120 milliliters) maple syrup
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt (I used 3/16 teaspoon as I like things a little salty) (if your almond butter is salted, add salt to taste)
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups (138 grams) rolled oats (use gluten-free oats, if necessary)
1/2 cup (55 grams) roasted chopped almonds, optional
Directions:
Directions:
In a medium pot, melt the coconut oil over low heat.
Add the almond butter, maple syrup, cinnamon and salt and stir until well combined.
Turn the heat up to medium and while stirring constantly, bring the mixture to a boil.
Boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. The mixture should thicken a little. Don't boil it longer than 2 minutes or it may separate.
Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla and oats until well combined.
If using almonds, stir them in now. Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop out balls of the mixture onto a piece of parchment paper.
Refrigerate in an airtight container for about a week.

Notes:
I used refined coconut oil which doesn't have any coconut taste. If you use unrefined coconut oil, these may have some coconut taste to them.
To roast almonds, place on a baking sheet and bake for 5-8 minutes at 350 °F (175 °C) until they smell toasty.
