Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C. Line a square 8×8 baking pan with parchment paper and set it aside.

Step 2

Make the frangipane. In a small bowl, add almond flour, egg, white sugar, vanilla extract, almond extract, and butter. Mix with a fork until an almond paste forms. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and brown sugar. Then add in egg and vanilla and continue whisking.

Step 4

Add in flour, baking powder, and salt. Using a spatula, fold until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Now it's time to layer. Place half of the dough into the bottom of the pan and spread evenly using a spatula or your hands. Make sure the entire bottom of the pan is covered.

Step 6

Add frangipane on top of the dough. I found it's easiest to use a cookie scooper for this part (less mess too!). Spread it evenly using a spatula.

Step 7

Take the remaining dough and place it on top of the frangipane and spread it out as best as you can, making sure not to disturb the bottom layers. It's okay if there are holes and the frangipane is peaking through.

Step 8

Evenly sprinkle slivered almonds on top.

Step 9

Bake for bars for 25-30 minutes. It'll be ready when the middle slightly puffs and the edges are a light golden brown. Once ready, remove from oven and cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar (optional, but recommended), and enjoy!
