Servings: 10 bars
Calories: 498kcal
Ingredients
- 2 cups finely chopped nuts I used raw almonds and pecans
- 2 cups finely shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt if nuts aren't salted
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 1/2 cup melted coconut oil
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1/4 cup almond butter
- 1 egg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° and line a 8x8 pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, combine nuts, coconut, cinnamon, salt, and almond flour.
- In a small bowl, mix together coconut oil, honey, and almond butter. Microwave for 10-20 seconds if needed to get smooth.
- Pour coconut oil mixture on the dry ingredients and mix until fully incorporated. Add the egg and stir again.
- Dump mixture into the prepared pan and press down to make very firm, as evenly as possible. This is an important step to get them to hold together.
- Bake for 30-32 minutes, the edges will be slightly brown. Once removed from the oven, press down again using a spatula.
- Once cool, cut into 10 bars. Melt chocolate chips in the microwave in 10 second intervals until smooth and drizzle over bars if desired.
- Store covered at room temperature.
