Ingredients

1/2 cup raw almonds
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1/4 cup pecan chips
3 tablespoons sunflower seeds
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoons allulose (see note)
2 tablespoons granular monk fruit sweetened
2 tablespoons unsweetened coconut cream
2 tablespoons sugar-free chocolate chips

Instructions

Line a 1-quart rectangular (about 7×4- inch) baking pan with parchment paper.
Coarsely chop the almonds and coconut flakes by pulsing in a food processor (about 30 seconds). Stir in the pecan chips, sunflower seeds, and chia seeds.
In a small saucepan, combine the sweetener and coconut cream over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and allow to boil, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and turns golden, about 5 minutes.
Stir the nuts, seeds, and coconut flakes into the syrup. Spread the mixture out onto the prepared pan with a rubber spatula, pressing it down into the pan. Allow to cool slightly, then sprinkle the choco late chips on top and press them into the mixture.
Freeze for 30 minutes or refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Once solid, lift the parchment paper out of the pan and place on a cutting board. Cut into 6 bars using a sharp knife.

Notes

NOTE:
It’s not recommended to use an erythritol-based sweetener by itself as too much erythritol can result in a crystallization of the sweetener after it’s been melted. If you can’t get allulose, xylitol will work. Or you could use a non- erythritol-based sweetener like granular kabocha extract sweetener instead of the allulose and granular monk fruit.
