Ingredients
For The Crust:
- 1 ¾ cups almond flour superfine blanched, plus more as needed
- 3 tbsp coconut flour
- 2 tbsp sweetener powdered
- ½ cup butter unsalted, softened
- 1 egg large
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
For The Filling:
- 1/2 cup butter unsalted, melted
- 1 cup golden monk fruit sweetener or any brown sugar substitute
- 1 cup canned coconut milk full-fat
- 2 cups pecans chopped
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips unsweetened
- 3 eggs large, at room temperature
- 1/4 tsp fine sea salt
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
Prepare the Crust
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
- In a large bowl, combine: almond flour, coconut flour, powdered sweetener, softened unsalted butter, egg, and sea salt.
- Mix with your hands or a spatula until a soft dough forms. If the dough feels too sticky, add 1–2 extra tablespoons of almond flour.
- Press the dough evenly into the bottom of a 9×9-inch baking pan lined with parchment paper for easy removal. Use a fork to poke holes throughout the crust to prevent bubbling.
- Bake the crust for 10–12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
Make the Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine: melted unsalted butter, golden monk fruit sweetener (or brown sugar substitute), full-fat canned coconut milk, vanilla extract, and fine sea salt.
- Whisk until fully combined. Add 3 room-temperature eggs and whisk again until smooth.
- Stir in: chopped pecans and unsweetened chocolate chips.
Assemble and Bake
- Pour the prepared filling over the pre-baked crust.
- You can cover the edges of the crust with aluminum foil to prevent burning.
- Bake at 350°F (180°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is mostly set but still slightly jiggly, and the top is golden.
Cool and Serve
- Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan. Cut into squares and enjoy!
