3 Ingredient Kind Bars Recipe – Almond Coconut
The easiest Kind bars, coconut and almond flavored. Just 3 ingredients for chewy, crunchy, healthy coconut almond bars!
Tell me, what’s your favorite KIND bar flavor? I might just take a stab at it, even though that expression totally spooks me out. My plan is to create the most epic homemade KIND bar recipe collection… and share all of the tasty recipes with you. 😉
Have you tried almond coconut kind bars? It’s one of my sister, Penny’s, favorite healthy snacks. And when I tell you it’s one of her faves, that means something. Due to the fact that she’s the Granola Bar Expert in our fam.
And while she loved my 5 ingredient Homemade Nut Bars and my Homemade Dark Chocolate Sea Salt KIND Nut Bars, she was still craving a bit of sumthin’ sumthin’ in the neighborhood of Easy, on the street of Almond Coconut.
(Yeah, I kinda let that analogy get away from me.)
When I shared today’s KIND Bars: Almond Coconut-style with Penny, she was over the moon. Won’t you try making some homemade kind bars of your own and tell me what you think? I can’t wait!

Description
3 Ingredient Kind Bars Recipe – Almond Coconut: the easiest Kind bars, coconut and almond flavored. Just 3 ingredients for chewy, crunchy, healthy coconut almond bars!
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted almonds
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes or raw coconut chips
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Mine came out very dark on top and bottom I wish I would have covered it while cooking. Smelled way too done and extra roasted ☹️
Hi Jen. Sometimes oven temperatures can vary quite a bit, and actually be hotter than we realize–I know I’ve definitely dealt with that most of the places I’ve lived. I would recommend using an over thermometer to make sure the oven isn’t getting hotter than it says on the control panel, and checking the bars halfway through baking to make sure they don’t get overdone. Hope this helps!
When I bake these everyone that eats them says the same thing.
SO ADDICTIVE! Delicious!!
LOL I know, right? So hard to stop eating them! 😂 Glad to hear they were such a hit!
Has anyone substituted honey for the maple syrup?
Yum! I am all for more coconut and chocolate goodies!
Yum! I am all for more coconut and chocolate goodies!
Thanks for the recipe, and I turned it into a version of an Almond Joy bar by adding bittersweet dark chocolate chips!
Yum! I am all for more coconut and chocolate goodies!
I’m super excited for when these come out of the oven!! But I found I needed to use a much smaller baking dish. When I put everything in my 8×8 it barely covered the bottom of the dish. Has anyone else had this issue?
Yes! These are excellent for trips and traveling of any kind! 🙂
YUM! I am going to try these out for road trips.
Yes! These are excellent for trips and traveling of any kind! 🙂
Hi is it possible to use date syrup instead of maple syrup?
Hi Ala, I haven’t tried it myself but I believe some readers have in my other homemade nut bar recipes with good results. Let me know how they turn out!
Excuse me! These are amazing! Super easy, super tasty. I topped these with a chocolate drizzle made with equal parts coconut oil, cacao powder and a splash of maple syrup. They remind me of the almond joy bars but better!
That’s so awesome to hear Shae! 😊 Thank you for taking the time to let me know how much you liked them!
This recipe looks delicious! Is it possible to use salted almonds instead? I enjoy sweet and salty treats but I’m wondering if the salted almonds would make these too salty.
Hi Cass! Salted almonds would be fine here, as long as you know it’ll come out saltier than using plain nuts. 😉 Happy baking!
Hi, in this recipe is it one cup or 250g?
I love this recipe but I think my measurements was not right
Thanks.
Hi Judy! The recipe calls for 1 cup of almonds. Hope this helps!
These are WAY better than store bought!
Glad to hear it!
