Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bars

Ingredients

• 1.5 cups almond flour
• 1/2 cup natural peanut butter
• 1/4 cup allulose or sugar-free maple syrup
• 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup dairy-free chocolate chips (sugar-free)

Method

1. 1

   Mix almond flour, peanut butter, allulose, melted coconut oil, and vanilla together until a thick dough forms.

2. 2

   Let the mixture cool at room temperature for 5-10 minutes if the coconut oil was warm — folding the chocolate chips into a still-warm mixture melts them into streaks instead of leaving distinct chips throughout the bars.

3. 3

   Fold in the chocolate chips once the mixture has cooled slightly.

4. 4

   Press firmly into a parchment-lined 8x8 pan.

5. 5

   Chill at least 1 hour until firm, then slice into bars.
