Almond Coconut Bars (Vegan; Gluten & Dairy Free)
​
INGREDIENTS:
​
-
1 cup unsalted almonds
-
1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
-
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
-
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
​
INSTRUCTIONS:
​
-
Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan of choice with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, add almonds, coconut and salt. Stir until well mixed. Pour maple syrup over the ingredients. Fold until well coated.
-
Pour this mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using a rubber spatula, press down on mixture and smooth into a tightly-packed, even layer.
-
Bake for 28-38 minutes (mine took 34 mins). Bars must bake thoroughly, or they won’t hold together when cooled.
-
Allow to cool for at least 1 hour in the pan on a cooling rack.
-
Remove the bars by Pinching opposite ends of the parchment paper.
-
Slice into 12 bars (6 rows x 2 columns). I use a pizza cutter or you can use a sharp knife. Enjoy!!
