Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Hazelnuts
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1/2 cup Cocoa powder
- 1/3 cup Pure maple syrup
- 1 cup Vegan dark chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1/4 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the hazelnuts on a baking sheet and roast them in the oven for 10 minutes.
Remove the hazelnuts from the oven and let them cool slightly. Then, place them in a clean kitchen towel and rub to remove the skins.
In a food processor, add the roasted hazelnuts and blend until they form a smooth butter.
Add rolled oats, cocoa powder, pure maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla extract, and salt to the food processor. Blend until the mixture is well combined and has a dough-like consistency.
Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper. Press the mixture evenly into the prepared dish, using your hands or a spatula to smooth the top.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the vegan dark chocolate chips and coconut oil together, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth.
Pour the melted chocolate over the hazelnut mixture in the baking dish and spread it evenly across the top.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate has set.
Once set, remove the bars from the dish and cut into squares or bars.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
