Instructions

1. 1.
   Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures it reaches the right temperature for baking your treat to a perfect golden tone. Line a small baking dish with parchment paper for easier removal and a clean finish.
2. 2.
   In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the unsalted butter gently, making sure not to burn it. Once completely liquid, add the honey and vanilla extract. Stir continuously until the mixture becomes smooth and emulsified, approximately 2-3 minutes. This step brings out the rich flavors of the honey while infusing the vanilla.
3. 3.
   Remove the saucepan from the heat and immediately stir in the almond flour. Mix vigorously until the almond flour is fully incorporated and the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the pan. This tells you the moisture level is just right, balancing stickiness with a manageable texture.
4. 4.
   Gently fold in the dried lavender, ensuring even distribution throughout the dough. This imparts an aromatic twist, delivering subtle floral notes that complement the sweetness of the honey and the nuttiness of the almond.
5. 5.
   Transfer the dough into your prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Press down firmly to compact the dough, promoting even baking and a cohesive texture. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the center is set. Allow to cool before cutting into bars or squares, which will prevent crumbling.
