Description

Delicious no-bake chocolate almond bars that are healthy and easy to make.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup raw almonds
  • 1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
  • 1/3 cup unflavored collagen peptides
  • 1/4 cup hemp hearts/seeds
  • pinch of salt
  • 2 Tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 Tbsp water (if needed)
  • 1/3 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond butter

Instructions

  1. Line an 8″ x 4″ loaf pan with parchment paper.
  2. In your food processor, combine the almonds, coconut, collagen, hemp seeds and salt. Blend until well pulverized.
  3. Add in the maple syrup and vanilla. Blend.
  4. If needed, add in the water, one tablespoon at a time. You want the mixture to clump and it should easily hold its shape when pressed together.
  5. Scoop the bar mixture into your lined loaf pan. Firmly press it into the pan in a nice, even layer.
  6. Melt the dark chocolate for the topping, then mix in the almond butter.
  7. Pour the topping over the bars and spread out to the edges.
  8. Place the bars in the fridge for at least one hour to firm.
  9. Once the bars have set, cut them to desired size (I cut mine into 12 small rectangles).
  10. Best stored in an airtight container in the fridge, up to two weeks.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg.
