Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 12 minutes
Total Time 32 minutes
Yield 12 - 16 bars

Ingredients

  • 2 cups almond flour (nut-free version listed above)
  • just over 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • pinch uncut stevia OR 5 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup or honey
  • Only if using stevia version, add 5 1/2 tbsp water
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter OR allergy-friendly sub, thinned out with milk of choice until spreadable
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips, or sugar free chocolate chips
  • optional 1-2 tsp oil, for smoother chocolate sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line an 8-inch square pan with parchment, and set aside. In a measuring bowl, stir together the almond meal, salt, baking soda, vanilla, and sweetener (and water, if using) to form a dough. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, and use a second sheet of parchment to smush the dough out evenly, pressing down again and again until it covers the bottom of the pan. Bake 12 minutes on the center rack, then let cool at least 20 minutes before either frosting right in the pan or removing from the pan and then frosting with the peanut butter. Carefully melt the chocolate. (I like to include the oil for smoother sauce that's easier to spread.) Spread on top of the peanut butter layer. Chill to set.
