01
Step 1
Start by soaking the almonds in 2 cups of water with a pinch of salt. Let them sit for at least 8 hours or overnight. Once soaked, drain and rinse them twice. Next, blend the soaked almonds with 2 cups of fresh water until you get a smooth mixture, which should take about 2 minutes. Pour this into a large bowl.

Step 2
Now, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 11x15-inch baking dish with cooking spray. In the bowl with your almond mixture, stir in the flour, chocolate chips, olive oil, chia seeds, honey, powdered peanut butter, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and 2 teaspoons of salt. Mix everything together well until it forms an even dough.

Spread the dough evenly in your prepared baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula or fork. Pop it into the oven and bake for 30 to 40 minutes, until the bars are cooked through and have a nice light brown color. Let them cool for about 10 minutes before slicing into bars. Enjoy!
