Ingredients
- ½ cup Almond Butter
- ½ cup Cashew Butter or could sub an additional ½ cup of Almond Butter
- ¼ cup Maple Syrup
- ½ cup Coconut Flour
- 1 cup Chopped Dark Chocolate or Chips
- 1 tablespoon Coconut Oil
- Pinch Flakey Sea Salt optional but delicious
Instructions
- In a medium size bowl, mix together the almond butter with the cashew butter, maple syrup, and coconut flour. The mixture will be pretty thick.
- Line an 8x8 (or 9x9 for thinner bars) baking dish with parchment paper. With a spatula, spread the mixture in the pan to form one even layer. Freeze while you make the topping.
- In a microwave-safe medium size bowl, combine the dark chocolate and coconut oil. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
- Spread the chocolate on top of the nut butter base. Freeze for at least an hour and up to one week.
- When ready to serve, take the bars out of the freezer. Let them sit for 10 minutes, cut into 16 squares, and sprinkle with flakey sea salt. Serve and enjoy!
