Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by melting the unsweetened chocolate using a double boiler or microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals if microwaving, stirring until completely melted.
- Remove the melted chocolate from heat and stir in the almond butter until well combined and smooth. Add coconut oil here if using.
- Pour in the keto maple syrup and mix thoroughly until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
- Fold in your favorite nuts and seeds if desired, mixing evenly into the chocolate mixture.
- Transfer the mixture into a parchment-lined 9x9 inch baking pan, spreading evenly. Refrigerate for 1-2 hours until set.
- Once set, remove from the pan and cut into bars. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator to keep fresh.
Notes
- Use any nut or seed butter as a substitute for almond butter to suit your taste or dietary needs.
- Adjust sweetness by adding more keto maple syrup or a non-sugar sweetener before setting.
- Store bars in the refrigerator for up to two weeks or freeze for longer storage, separating layers with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
