1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon lemon zest
8 tablespoons chopped blanched almonds

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 3h45m

Yield 20 bars

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup unsalted roasted almonds, chopped
1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted
Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup honey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup crushed pretzels

Steps:

  • For the base: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Toss the oats with the butter on a rimmed baking sheet and spread in an even layer. Bake until toasted, 18 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely, then transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the almonds and coconut.
  • For the bars: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with foil, leaving an overhang. Coat the foil with cooking spray.
  • Combine the sugar, butter, honey, salt and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally; the mixture will bubble and foam. Boil for 30 seconds, then pour over the oat mixture and stir. Let cool slightly, then stir in the chocolate chips and pretzels. Pour the mixture into the prepared pan and press firmly with a rubber spatula to spread in an even layer.
  • Let the bars stand at room temperature until completely cool and firm enough to slice, 1 to 3 hours. Lift out of the pan using the foil overhang and cut into 20 bars. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.

Steps:

  • Line a square, loose-bottom 20-cm (8-in) baking tray with parchment paper.

  • After the 2 hours, remove the tray from the freezer and place the toppings on.
  • Carefully remove the bars from the tin, then cut it into 12-14 bars. Run your knife under hot water between each cut to make it easier.
  • Place the bars onto a baking tray and back into the freezer while you make the coating.
  • Mix the chocolate coating ingredients together in a small mixing bowl until smooth.
  • Remove the bars from the freezer and drizzle the coating over the top of each bar. Top each bar with a couple of pretzels or a sprinkling of flaked almonds. Serve straight away or store in the freezer for up to 2 months. Serve straight from the freezer.
