Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond flour
- 1 tablespoon Coconut flour
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Coconut oil, melted
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (Paleo-friendly)
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
- 1 tablespoon Unsweetened almond milk
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and salt. Mix well to ensure there are no lumps.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted coconut oil, honey, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring continuously until a dough forms.
Fold in the dark chocolate chips and sliced almonds, distributing them evenly throughout the dough.
Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, forming it into a rough rectangular shape about 1/2 inch thick. Use the back of a spoon to smooth the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and firm to the touch.
Remove from the oven and let it cool on the baking sheet for about 10 minutes.
Gently transfer the pastry to a wire rack to cool completely before cutting.
Once cooled, cut the pastry into bars or squares and serve.
Optional: Drizzle with a mixture of almond milk and a bit of melted chocolate for added decoration and flavor.
