Need a snack that hits like a matcha latte but actually keeps your blood sugar stable? These baked matcha oatmeal squares are your hormone-friendly energy boost in baked-good form. Think cozy, chewy, green-tea-chic — the kind of snack you make once and hoard like a squirrel on cycle day 21.
Why These Squares Are Smart-Girl Fuel: Matcha = clean energy + antioxidants. Oats = fiber and mood support. Healthy fats = blood sugar stability. And bonus? These are secretly gut-healing and PMS-soothing. We’re stacking benefits here, not just calories.

Star Ingredients Breakdown:
🍵 Matcha – Loaded with L-theanine (calming amino acid) + gentle caffeine for a focused energy lift without the cortisol spike.
🌾 Oats – Rich in soluble fiber (beta-glucans) for stable blood sugar, reduced bloat, and serotonin support.
🥥 Coconut oil or ghee – Nourishing fat source that fuels hormone production and improves absorption of fat-soluble vitamins.
🍯 Honey or maple syrup – Natural sweetness with antimicrobial properties and liver-loving enzymes.
🥚 Eggs or flax eggs – Protein + choline for ovulation and hormone balance.
