For the Vanilla Glaze

Instructions

Heat oven to 350°F. Line a 9" x 9" square baking pan with parchment paper.

In a small saucepan, over medium stirring frequently heat the coconut oil, almond butter, maple syrup, and milk until thoroughly heated (do not boil). Remove from heat.

In a medium bowl, stir together all remaining breakfast bar ingredients. Pour in the warm coconut oil mixture over the dry ingredients and stir to combine.

Spoon into the prepared baking pan and firmly press down into an even layer. Bake 27 to 32 minutes, or until set and golden brown.

Allow bars to cool completely in the pan. Transfer the pan to the refrigerator and chill 2 hours before cutting.
