Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.5 cup coconut oil
- 0.333 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 cup coconut cream
- 0.25 cup dark chocolate chips (optional, paleo-friendly)
Instructions
Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine unsweetened shredded coconut and almond flour.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the coconut oil. Once melted, add honey, vanilla extract, and sea salt, stirring until fully combined.
Pour the liquid mixture into the bowl with the shredded coconut and almond flour. Stir until everything is well incorporated.
Add coconut cream to the mixture and mix again until the mixture is moist and can be pressed together.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and use a spatula to press it evenly across the base of the dish.
If using dark chocolate chips, sprinkle them on top and gently press them into the coconut mixture.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 2 hours or until firm.
Once set, lift the bars out of the dish using the parchment paper and place them on a cutting board.
Cut into 12 bars and serve. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
