Ingredients:  
Bars:
2 C. (200 g) old-fashioned oats , (gluten-free, if needed)
1 C. (120 g) chopped almonds
½ C. (43 g) Dutch-process or dark cocoa powder (see note)
½ C. (57 g) almond flour (see note)
¾ C. (64 g) sweetened or unsweetened shredded coconut
1 C. (170 g) semisweet or bittersweet chocolate chips

Syrup:
½ C. (113 g) coconut oil, melted
¼ C. (53 g) brown sugar
¼ C. honey
¼ tsp. salt
½ tsp. vanilla extract
Directions:
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9X13-inch pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, stir together the oats, almonds, cocoa, almond flour, and coconut.

In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the coconut oil, brown sugar, honey, salt and vanilla. It’s ok if it separates a bit.

Stir the syrup mixture into the dry ingredients until evenly combined. Add the chocolate chips and toss together.

Press the mixture lightly into the prepared pan until it is in an even layer. The harder you press, the less crumbly the bars will be, but don’t overdo it. A gentle press with the palms of your hands should do it.

Bake for 20-25 minutes (decrease time for softer bars or increase for extra crunchiness). The bars will look soft coming out of the oven but will set up and get crispier as they cool.
