“See, THIS is why it pays to be friends with a food blogger!!! Uh, I mean sisters with one!!” My sister, Penny’s, reaction when I mischieviously and happily gave her a box of treats over holiday vacation. 🙂

The thing is, as a food blogger, I’m always getting requests for baked goods: cookies, cakes, bars, bites, free chocolate chips, muffins, free peanut butter and more. For some reason, my family thinks I get a bunch of free edible goodies that they’d be “happy” to take off my hands.

They’re quite the classy bunch, I tell ya. 😉 J/k, love you guys! … For FREE!

Well, do you guys remember my 5 Ingredient Homemade KIND Nut Bars? To my surprise, they’ve done really, really well: on Facebook, the ol’ blogeroo, and Instagram. Some folks have told me they’ve made them over 10 times! And yes, I’m unbelievably proud. 🙂

Well, literally the second my sister saw that recipe, she was like, “so… my favorite KIND bar of all time is the Coconut & Almond KIND bar.”

Me: Oh, that’s cool!

Penny: Yeah, it’s really, really good!

P: And the flavor is just incredible! It’s so simple: just coconut and almonds.

Me: That is simple!

P: Yeah, so…

M: You know what would be a great idea? I just came up with this!! Like, all by myself. How about I make a 3 Ingredient Homemade KIND Coconut Almond Bar recipe? What do you think? Is that too unexpected?

Just kidding! I totally did not say that it was all my idea. Haha. But Penny would’ve rolled with it, secretly thinking that she was so clever in inception-ing me (as Erik calls it). She was pleased as a peach when I told her I might consider it. No promises, even though I would love to give her the world. Sometimes, recipe testing is unexpectedly curveball-filled and I don’t like to make promises I can’t keep.

But this time, it all worked out!

Phew! Now 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 of homemade KIND bar recipe roundups! So far I also have Homemade Dark Chocolate Sea Salt KIND Nut Bars. If you try those too, let me know what you think!

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

Scale
  • 1 cup unsalted almonds
  • 1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes or raw coconut chips
  • ¼ teaspoon salt (optional)
  • ¼ cup pure maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Add almonds, coconut and salt (if using) to a large bowl. Stir until well mixed. Pour maple syrup over this mixture. Fold until well incorporated.
  3. Pour this mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using a rubber spatula, press down on mixture and smooth into a tightly-packed, even layer. Bake for 28-38 minutes (mine took 33 mins). Bars must bake thoroughly, or they won’t hold together when cooled.
  4. Allow to cool for 1 hour (or until completely cooled), in the pan on a cooling rack. Pinching opposite ends of the parchment paper lining, lift bars out of pan. Gently peel parchment paper off the bottom of the bars. Slice into 12 bars (6 rows by 2 columns). Enjoy! Storing instructions below.

    I just made these, I took mine out at 35 minutes because they were browning a lot! They also won’t stick for me, they just fall apart. Should I cook at a lower temp? Any suggestions? They are still delicious, taste really great. Thanks for the recipe!

        i just tried this and I left one dish in as the oven cooled, and that pan did much better about sticking together than the first! So maybe that would help? Perhaps I took the first pan out too soon.
        Both very tasty though! Thanks for the recipe!

    Fabulous!! Thank you so much for a great recipe. I’m always looking for something a little sweet… This recipe is perfect. The only negative… It’s probably not healthy to eat the pan in one sitting. So hard to resist. I also forgot to use parchment paper… So I thought I’d just cut them out of the pan… Wrong move using a ceramic knife as the tip broke off… Same color as the coconut. I am chewing each piece well and slowly because I can’t imagine throwing them out.

    So I made these twice within 2weeks; first time I added some dried cranberries, I didn’t have enough maple syrup so I added brown rice syrup as well with an extra dollop (I found 1/4 cup is enough). Turned out great. 2nd batch I added a medley of dried cranberries, not enough whole almonds (had sliced almonds on hand) and chia seeds. Another thumbs up.
    It’s crazy what stores charge for snack bars, thank you for this recipe great for work and when I go hiking. Or for anything. I’ve tried several different recipes this will be my go to recipe, simple, easy and that I can switch it up.

    Hi dear, thanks for the recipe as always you are fantastic.
    However i am so disappointed my bars are not stick together when i try to cut them, and i let them to cool i have put enough agave syrup and make them bake enough.

    So i am wondering why that?

    Reply
    • Demeter | Beaming Baker says

      February 13, 2019 at 2:57 pm

      Hi Alexa! Hm, first make sure you’re packing the pan very tightly—if it’s loose at all they won’t stick together as well. Also, you might need to adjust the bake time with the agave, since I designed this one with maple syrup in mind. Hope this helps! 🙂

    I’m curious though if you have ever cut up the almonds? They seem so big. Also, I was thinking of making some with a mix of different nuts and seeds. Have you ever tried adding chia, flax, or sunflower seeds?

    Love this recipe. I substituted Honey for Maple Syrup since Maple syrup isn’t available where I live, and they turned out great. I’ve tried it with half walnuts and almonds. It was tasty as well. I love easy gluten free recipes for treats like this. I’m wondering if you’ve tried less nuts and substituting some oats. I plan to try this next to save on costs. I have a family of 7 and 3 are gluten free, and we live in a country where that is still a pretty foreign concept where cookies are served anytime you visit; so I”m very thankful for such an easy recipe that is easily transportable. Just made a double batch for my kids camp week to have a gluten free option when cookies are served. Thanks

    Hi Demeter! I made these recently. The flavor is incredibly awesome. I had a little trouble getting them off the aluminum foil and they were a little dry and hard to cut. Could this have been from using aluminum foil instead of parchment paper? The middle stuck to the foil and I had to dig them off the foil. Nonetheless, I’m making them again tonight. And this time I’ll use parchment paper.

    The flavor was excellent, though I need to improve my cutting skills with them. I think next time I am going to try baking them in a silicone bar mold I have so I don’t have to cut them at all.

    My 21 year-old son thought they were better than the ones from the store. I agree!

    I would love to make these as a healthier Valentine’s Day treat for some co-workers. But what about putting some dark chocolate chunks? What do you suggest for if I want to add chocolate?

    These are so good! I love the Almond Apricot Kind bars, so I added some chopped, dried apricots to this recipe. Yum!

    These look delicious! My son cannot have maple syrup. How would honey work as a substitute?

    Is Maple Syrup Paleo ? I thought it wasnt.

    Hi..I tried your recipe but I was not able to cut them into small even sized bars. The Almonds are crunchy but while cutting them with the knife..the mixture was broken imto uneven pieces..what could be the reason? No doubt these taste awesome.

      Hi Rachna, when you poured the mixture into the pan, did you make sure to scrape the bowl clean of maple syrup (and onto the bars)? Also, did you allow the bars to cool in the pan until completely cool before cutting? Lastly, did you pack the bars into a very tight layer? The more gaps there are in the mixture, the more likely the bars will separate when cutting. Good luck! 🙂

    Hi! These look wonderful and I hope to try them soon. Just to let you know, however, that the coconut you have linked is not considered gluten free (processed in a facility that also processes wheat) for those with Celiac Disease (such as myself). I’m pretty sure I can track down a substitute but I wanted to let you know in case you wanted to update your product link. =) Thanks again for the recipe!

        No worries- I ended up making them today with some supplies I had on hand (we’re snowed in thanks to a blizzard and I decided to do a bit of gluten free baking) and they are WONDERFUL! I look forward to enjoying one every day as my afternoon snack. I’ll be sure to check out the updated links when it’s time for my next batch. Thanks again!

    These kind bars are one of my favorites. Please thank your sister for me for recipe-ceptioning you.
    Last year as I was staring my blog I sent you a comment and you sent me a very kind response. I wanted to thank you and say that is people like you that ripple circles of kindness in life. I mentioned you (and linked to you) in my latest blog post summing up this past year.
    Thank you

        If you use sweetened coconut flakes, do you cut down on the maple syrup. That’s what I have on hand right now

          January 25, 2018 at 9:27 am

          Hi Jacquie, I wouldn’t recommend cutting down on the maple syrup–it’s what binds the ingredients together. With sweetened coconut flakes, the bars might be a bit too sweet. Try using more almonds instead of coconut, for example: 1 1/4 cup almonds and 3/4 cup coconut to balance it all out. Good luck! 🙂
