Line a standard loaf pan with parchment paper and then firmly press the dough until evenly packed and of uniform thickness.
Wrap the pan with foil or plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
Remove the dough onto a cutting board and cut into desired bars or squares. Transfer into an airtight container and store in the refrigerator.

Notes

Use super fine almond flour and not almond meal.

To use regular-size chocolate chips - Chop regular chocolate chips into smaller pieces on a cutting board, then add to the almond bars dough.

Adjust the amount of maple syrup based on the sweetness level of your almond butter brand.
