Author Notes
These gluten free/dairy free/soy free bars will delight all. A small chewy bar will satisfy your taste buds, but you'll probably want more... if you love almonds, you'll love these. Adapted from King Arthur Flour gluten free raspberry almond bars (www.kingarthurflour.com). I took out the butter and cookie mix and added oats, brown sugar, an extra egg, cinnamon, and salt. —phorning
