Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups blanched almond flour
  • 1/3 cup tapioca flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp sea salt
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil (at room temperature)
  • 1/4 cup cashew butter
  • 1/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chocolate chips*

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare an 8x8 square baking dish by spraying with non-stick spray and lining with parchment paper.

  2. In a medium sized bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: both flours, baking soda, and sea salt.

  3. In a larger bowl, use a stand mixer or hand mixer to beat together the wet ingredients: coconut oil, cashew butter, coconut sugar, egg, and vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.

  4. Pour in the dry ingredients to the wet. Fold in chocolate chips.

  5. Using a spatula, spread the dough mixture evenly in the prepared pan. Transfer to the oven and bake for 25 minutes.

  6. Remove from oven and cool for 15-20 minutes. Then cut into even bars.

Recipe Notes

*Use dairy-free, unsweetened, or refined sugar free chocolate chips for a Paleo variation. Lily's, Choc Zero, or Enjoy Life are good options.
