Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang for easy removal later.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, cacao powder, baking soda, and sea salt. Stir well to ensure there are no lumps.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the honey (or maple syrup), melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Add the eggs to the wet ingredients and whisk until fully incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir the mixture carefully until a dough forms.
Fold the dark chocolate chips into the dough using a spatula, ensuring even distribution.
Transfer the dough into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Allow the bars to cool completely in the baking dish. Once cooled, lift them out using the parchment paper overhang.
Cut into 12 bars and store in an airtight container for up to a week or freeze for longer storage.
