Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal of the bars.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, gluten-free oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until well combined.
Add the melted butter and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients and stir until a crumbly dough forms.
Press about two-thirds of the dough evenly into the prepared baking pan to form the base layer. Use a flat-bottomed cup to press it firmly and evenly.
Spread the Nutella over the base layer, using a spatula to help spread it evenly. For easier spreading, you can warm the Nutella slightly in the microwave for about 15 seconds.
Sprinkle the remaining dough evenly over the Nutella layer, pressing it lightly to form a cohesive top layer.
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the edges are set.
Remove from the oven and allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan. Cut into squares and serve.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week.
