Gather Your Tools
Grab a mixing bowl, a spatula, and a lined baking dish for easy preparation and cleanup.
Combine the Dry Ingredients
In your mixing bowl, whisk together almond flour, matcha powder, and a pinch of sea salt. This ensures the flavors are evenly distributed and sets the foundation for your bars.
Blend the Wet Ingredients
In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, gently melt coconut oil. Stir in maple syrup and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
Bring It All Together
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry mixture. Use a spatula to combine until you have a thick, cohesive dough. If the mixture feels too dry, add a teaspoon of water or plant-based milk to adjust the consistency.
Customize Your Bars
Mix in any optional add-ins, such as shredded coconut, chia seeds, or dark chocolate chips, to give the bars more texture and flavor.
Shape the Mixture
Transfer the dough to your lined baking dish. Press it firmly into an even layer using the back of a spoon or your hands. This step ensures your bars hold their shape.
Chill and Set
Place the dish in the refrigerator for at least an hour to firm up. If you’re short on time, pop it in the freezer for 20–30 minutes.
Slice and Serve
Once the mixture is firm, remove it from the dish and cut it into bars or squares. Enjoy immediately, or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
