Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons creamy almond butter
  • 1/4 cup stevia-sweetened chocolate chips or a dairy-free alternative
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup chopped raw almonds
  • 4 tablespoons monk fruit sweetener
  • 1 tablespoon melted coconut oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup tightly packed unsweetened coconut flakes about 65g

Method
 

  1. Ready to create your own delightful snack? Let’s roll up our sleeves and get cooking.
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
  1. Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). A well-heated oven is essential for baking these bars perfectly.
Step 2: Prepare Your Baking Dish
  1. Grab an 8x8 inch baking dish. Line it with parchment paper for easy removal later. This small step can save you a lot of time scrambling to get sticky bars out of the pan.
Step 3: Mix the Wet Ingredients
  1. In a mixing bowl, add the almond butter, melted coconut oil, egg, and vanilla extract. Stir the mixture until smooth and well combined.
Step 4: Combine the Dry Ingredients
  1. In another bowl, mix together the chopped almonds, coconut flakes, monk fruit sweetener, ground cinnamon, and sea salt. This combination will add both flavor and texture to the bars.
Step 5: Combine Wet and Dry Mixes
  1. It’s time to bring everything together. Pour the dry mixture into the bowl with the wet mixture. Stir until everything is thoroughly combined. If you're feeling adventurous, this is a great moment to toss in a few extra goodies like chia seeds or pumpkin seeds for added nutrition.
Step 6: Fold in the Chocolate Chips
  1. Gently fold in the stevia-sweetened chocolate chips. These tiny morsels will melt just enough to offer bursts of chocolatey goodness in your granola bars.
Step 7: Transfer to the Baking Dish
  1. Spoon the mixture into your prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly, making sure to press it down firmly. This will help ensure that the bars hold together once baked.
Step 8: Bake
  1. Place the dish in the oven and bake for about 20-25 minutes. You’ll know they're ready when the edges begin to turn a golden brown color.
Step 9: Cool and Cut
  1. Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, lift out the parchment paper and cut the bars into squares or rectangles—whatever suits your style.
