Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Almonds
- 1 cup Walnuts
- 1 cup Pecans
- 0.5 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 0.5 cup Matzo meal
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 0.25 cup Brown sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to make removing the bars easier.
Roughly chop the almonds, walnuts, and pecans. You can leave some pieces larger for added texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped nuts, shredded coconut, and matzo meal. Mix well.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the honey, brown sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, and salt until smooth and well blended.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until everything is evenly coated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly and pressing it down firmly with the back of a spoon or spatula to ensure the bars hold together.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden and the edges are slightly crisp.
Remove the pan from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars out of the pan and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, use a sharp knife to slice into 12 bars. Store the bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
