Ingredients
  

For the base
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup bread flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats Pulsed into a powder
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 7 tablespoons butter, chilled

  • 5 tablespoons milk Any milk works; almond mentioned
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
For the topping

  • marshmallows For topping

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and lightly grease a 9×9 inch glass baking pan.
  2. Use a food processor to pulse the rolled oats into a powder.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk the flours, oat powder, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon together.
  4. Cut in the butter and mix until it resembles a coarse meal.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the almond milk, vanilla extract, and maple syrup.
  6. Add this mix to the large bowl and bring together until just combined.
  7. Knead the dough for a minute until it holds together.
  8. Plop the dough ball into the baking pan and press until evenly distributed.
Baking and Topping
  1. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes until set and lightly golden.
  2. Refrigerate the baked base for a few hours to firm up.
  3. Cut the graham bars to size and top each one with chocolate pieces and marshmallows.
  4. Broil for about 3 minutes until the marshmallows are slightly golden brown.
  5. Let cool a bit, then enjoy.

Notes

Chilling the baked base is key—cooling firms the bars so you can cut clean squares before topping. Serve warm for best texture.
