INSTRUCTIONS
    Prep Work:
    1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
    2. Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper.
    Berry Mixture:
    1. In a bowl, mix the mixed berries and set them aside. This will give your Berry Nutty Breakfast Oat Bars a juicy burst of flavor.
    Dry Ingredients:
    1. In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, crushed walnuts, baking powder, and salt. Mix them thoroughly to ensure the Berry Nutty Breakfast Oat Bars have an even texture.
    Wet Mix:
    1. In a third bowl, stir together the almond butter, honey, vanilla extract, and almond milk. This mix ensures your bars are moist and sweet.
    Combine:
    1. Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mix until well combined.
    2. Gently stir in the berry mixture.
    Bake:
    1. Transfer the combined mixture to your prepared baking dish.
    2. Spread it out evenly using a spatula.
    3. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until the edges of your Berry Nutty Breakfast Oat Bars are golden brown.
    Cool & Serve:
    1. Once baked, let your bars cool in the dish for 10 minutes.
    2. Then, transfer them to a cooling rack and allow them to cool completely. This ensures that your bars hold their shape when cut.

    Notes

    Variation: For a tropical twist, add shredded coconut or dried pineapple bits.
    Storage: Store your Berry Nutty Breakfast Oat Bars in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
    Freeze: You can also freeze them and reheat when needed.
    Substitute: If you have a nut allergy, use sunflower seed butter instead of almond butter for your Berry Nutty Breakfast Oat Bars.
