Ingredients
Shortbread Layer
- 1 ½ cup Almond Flour
- 3 Tbs Coconut Oil melted
- 3 Tbs Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ⅛ tsp Sea Salt
Caramel Layer
- ½ cup Almond Butter
- ¼ cup Coconut Oil melted
- ¼ cup Maple Syrup
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- ⅛ tsp Sea Salt
Chocolate Layer
- ½ cup Chocolate Chips
- 1 Tbs Coconut Oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350F.
- First, you’ll make your shortbread cookie base by mixing the almond flour with coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla, and salt. Press this into an 8×8 inch square pan lined with parchment paper and bake for 10-12 minutes at 350F.
- Once the base is done baking, make your almond butter layer by mixing almond butter, maple syrup, coconut oil, vanilla, and salt in a pot over medium-low heat for about 2 minutes. Finally, cut into 16 bars and enjoy!
- Pour your almond butter layer on top of the cooled shortbread cookie layer, and then place it in the fridge to harden for about 30 minutes.
- Melt your chocolate chips with coconut oil in a small saucepan. Pour the chocolate over the almond butter and spread the chocolate around with a spatula to make an even layer. Place it back in the fridge for 20 minutes until the chocolate has hardened.
- Finally, cut into 16 bars and enjoy!
