Ingredients

• 150 grams rolled oats
• 50 grams all-purpose flour
• 100 grams brown sugar
• 100 grams butter (unsalted)
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 50 grams almonds (chopped)
• 50 grams raisins
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a rectangular baking pan (approximately 8x8 inches) with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

Step 3

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the honey and vanilla extract.

Step 4

Pour the butter mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.

Step 5

Fold in the chopped almonds and raisins, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan and press it down firmly with the back of a spoon or your hands to create an even surface.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.

Step 8

Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes. Use the parchment paper to lift the slab out of the pan and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack.

Step 9

Once cooled, slice the slab into 8 equal bars or squares using a sharp knife.

Step 10

Store the Oaty Delight in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week, or refrigerate for extended freshness.
