Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350. Mix the melted vegan butter, maple syrup, oats, almond flour, baking powder, vanilla, peanut butter, almond milk, and salt together until a thick cookie dough batter forms.
Transfer half of the cookie dough into a greased 9x11 casserole dish, use a silicone spatula to distribute it evenly and press it into the dish. Carefully spread the jam over top of the cookie dough. Top with the remaining cookie dough, using a spatula to ensure it's even and all of the jam is covered.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden around the edges. Your kitchen will smell incredible!
Allow the bars to cool completely before slicing (carefully, they are very soft) into 16 squares. Drizzle the squares with peanut butter and jam. Top each bar with Bob's Red Mill Peanut Butter Homestyle Granola. Enjoy!
