Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup almond flour (alternative: gluten-free oats)
- ½ cup natural peanut butter or almond butter
- ¼ cup maple syrup or agave nectar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ cup dairy-free chocolate chips or cacao nibs
- optional: shredded coconut or chopped nuts for topping
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, sea salt, and chocolate chips. Mix well.
- Slightly melt the peanut butter or almond butter to make it easier to blend. Stir in the maple syrup and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir thoroughly until a cohesive dough forms. Add a teaspoon of plant-based milk or water if the mixture is too dry.
- Transfer the dough to a parchment-lined dish. Use a spatula to press evenly into a flat layer. Add optional toppings like shredded coconut or chopped nuts.
- Place in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes, preferably an hour, until firm. Slice into bars and serve.
Notes
- You can substitute almond flour with finely blended oats or other nut flours for different textures.
- Ensure the mixture is well combined for optimal consistency.
- Wrap individual bars in plastic wrap and freeze for longer storage.
