1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
1/4 cup almond milk (or any non-dairy milk)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1/4 cup sliced almonds (for topping)
For the glaze:
1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/4 teaspoon almond extract
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, almond flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.
-
Add in the melted coconut oil, almond milk, vanilla extract, and almond extract. Mix until a dough forms.
-
Press the dough into the prepared pan, smoothing it with a spatula.
-
Sprinkle sliced almonds over the dough.
-
Bake for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
-
While baking, whisk together powdered sugar, almond milk, and almond extract to make the glaze.
-
Once baked, cool the bars for 10-15 minutes, then drizzle with the glaze.
-
Let the bars cool completely before slicing and serving.
Notes
For a sweeter treat, adjust the sugar levels in both the dough and glaze.
Add-ins like chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, or pecans can provide extra flavor and texture.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for 3-4 days, or refrigerate for up to a week. Reheat for a fresh taste.
