Keto Easy No Bake Chocolate Oat Bars

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups almond flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup powdered erythritol or stevia (or sweetener of your choice)
1/2 cup almond butter (or any nut butter of your choice)
1/2 cup coconut oil, melted
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
A pinch of salt
Optional add-ins: chopped nuts, unsweetened shredded coconut, sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, cocoa powder, powdered sweetener, and a pinch of salt. Mix well to combine all the dry ingredients.
Add the almond butter, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix thoroughly until a thick and uniform mixture forms. If the mixture seems too dry, you can add a bit more melted coconut oil.
If you’re adding any optional ingredients like chopped nuts or sugar-free chocolate chips, fold them into the mixture.
Line a baking dish or pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared baking dish and press it down firmly to create an even layer. Use the back of a spoon or your hands to compact the mixture.
Place the baking dish in the refrigerator to chill and set. This typically takes about 1-2 hours.
Once the mixture has set, remove the baking dish from the refrigerator and use the parchment paper overhang to lift the slab of bars out of the dish.
Place the slab on a cutting board and use a sharp knife to cut it into bars of your desired size.
Store the keto no-bake chocolate oat bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Due to the coconut oil content, they might soften at room temperature.
