Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup [Your Company Name] Almond Butter
- 1 cup rolled oats

Instructions:

Combine the dry ingredients: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the rolled oats, chia seeds, flax seeds (if using), and a pinch of sea salt. Stir to combine.

Add the wet ingredients: Add the almond butter, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Stir everything together until well combined. The mixture should be slightly sticky but hold together when pressed.
