Notes
- Where to Buy Ingredients: Paleo Chocolate or Vegan Chocolate Chips | Coconut Flour | Unsalted Creamy Almond Butter | Pure Maple Syrup

After the first day, you may store these bars in an airtight container at room temperature (1-2 weeks), refrigerator (1-2 weeks). Starting week 2, the bars are a bit drier (like Reese’s PB cup filling), but still delicious.
- Freezing Instructions: These bars freeze well. Store in an airtight container in the freezer for 1-2 months. Thaw at room temperature for about 10 minutes before enjoying.

Love it! I’m usually not a fan of nutty flavours, but I really enjoyed it. Plus they’re quick and easy.
★★★★★
Wonderful! I’m so happy that you still enjoyed it, Brooke. 🙂
LOVE!!!
How many calories for 1 bar?
★★★★★
I’m wondering the same thing. I tried to do the math, but I don’t believe I did it right! 🙂
Hi, I am very excited to try this recipe! Do you have any thoughts on substituting the flour and using cassava flour? Oat and almond flour aren’t an option right now. Thanks
Hi Megan! I’m not sure about the cassava flour. As I know it, cassava flour is poisonous when eaten raw. If that’s the only thing you have on hand, bake the flour first at 350F for about 5 mins so ensure it’s cooked. Then use in this recipe. Double check this to make sure! 😉 Good luck!
Made these last night when I was craving dessert bad but wanted to stay on plan. I read the directions wrong so I came back from the store with not enough almond butter (I didn’t see that it was also needed for the chocolate layer). So I used coconut butter for the chocolate layer instead. Still so good!! And easy! Thanks for sharing!
★★★★★
How funny! Isn’t it awesome when you experience a bit of a hiccup/change in plans and it all works out anyway? Love that the coconut butter worked. Enjoy!!
Hi, I plan on trying these for our family gathering this weekend. I however am not vegan so I was wondering how to sub eggs for flax eggs. I hope this doesnt cause a problem for you with me asking about eggs
Hi Tammy! No problem at all with asking. 🙂 Usually it’s a simple 1:1 swap with my baked recipes, but I noticed that this recipe doesn’t call for flax eggs. Was there another recipe you were thinking about making?
Decadent, Delicious & Healthy!
Thanks so much for the delicious recipe, will definitely be making again and again and again. My whole family are in love with these, cant blame them! 😉
I found another recipe that says you can roast a sheet of almonds on 350 for 10 minutes. It worked out perfectly just that in my tiny blender, I could only make a cup at a time of almond blender, going to have to invest in a food processor, the taste of homemade almond butter is amazing in comparison to store bought in my opinion.
Thanks again for the scrumptious recipe!!!!
Hugs
★★★★★
Three words I love to hear! You are so welcome, Mo! 🙂 Isn’t it wonderful when you can make a healthy treat that the entire family loves? Love that you used homemade almond butter in these—it’s one of my fave ways of amping up the delish almond flavor. Happy No Baking! Big hugs back!! .
Almonds have great nutritional value and these almond butter bars a real delight to enjoy they’re simply scrumptious, I made a whole batch of these!
★★★★★
Yes and yes! I’m so glad that you enjoyed my paleo almond butter bars, Veronica! 🙂
Hello there,
If I want a sugar free recipe, can I just remove the maple syrup from the recipe? Or will I have to substitute it with something like stevia.
Many thanks,
Corey
Hi Corey, I definitely suggest subbing the maple syrup with something else. Perhaps try adding stevia in small amounts & increasing until you reach the taste you like. 🙂
I like this recipe, simple to make with on hand ingredients(i used peanut butter) and delicious. I really like using coconut flour but next time I’m going to try a little less as it tends to create a mouth-drying effect and can sometimes make the result crumbly
★★★★★
Nothing beats a tasty recipe that’s easy to make, right? . Glad you enjoyed it Emily!
Absolutely delicious and oh so simple to make. I exchanged chocolate with coconut oil, cacao and maple syrup and added some peppermint oil. Tastes very much like a mint slice. Thank you for this delicious recipe.
★★★★★
Ooh what a lovely addition. So happy you enjoyed the recipe!
Hi Leah,
What ratio were the ingredients for your chocolate topping?
thanks
Hi there. These are delicious and easy to make.
Do you have any idea what the total sugar is? I need to watch my blood sugar.
Many thanks
★★★★★
Hi Lorelei! I’m in the process of adding nutrition info to all the recipes on my site—thanks for your patience!
Wow this turned out amazing!!!
★★★★★
That’s wonderful! So happy to hear it!
These look delicious! I’m a little afraid to make them because I don’t know how I’m going to stop myself from eating too many at once.
★★★★★
LOL I face the same issue every time I make these too! .
Looks extremely yummy! For sure this will quickly disappear in our house, need to make this soon!
★★★★★
Oh most definitely—they always go fast around here! .
I am so making these, can’t wait to try them!

I’m so impressed these are only four ingredients! I literally just added the ingredients I needed to the grocery list to try these out. Too easy not to!
★★★★★
Haha that’s what I love about these bars. They’re just so easy! .
Made these for a quick dessert and was astounded by how amazing they taste. The whole family loved them and I’m definitely making more!

I love that these are No-Bake! Almond Butter + Chocolate are the perfect combo!
★★★★★
Couldn’t agree more Shanika! .
These bars are so good, my son wants me to make a batch at least once a week, so good!
★★★★★
Woohoo! Sounds like you’ve got one lucky son. . So glad to hear they’re such a hit Patty!
oohh these are SO GOOD!! I made them and ate the whole pan to myself within a day!
★★★★★
LOL I’ve definitely been there before! .
I really love everything about this recipe!
★★★★★
Yay! Thanks Tanya! 🙂
Hello! I was interesting in giving these a try but read through to comments for substitutions on the coconut flour due to a coconut allergy. There was mention of people having success with oat flour. Would you still use 1/2 cup of oat flour or would you recommend another amount like the almond flour?
Hi Teri! Try using 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons oat flour (give or take). It might not be enough flour to dry up/thicken the bars right way. However, after about a day, they should be just right. Good luck!
I have a coconut sensitivity and I am to eliminate oats from my diet all together can you suggest another flour substitute as these are so simple and a great change from the paleo chocolate chip cookies I’m over making because of my new lifestyle of eating and foot prep. Thanks
★★★★★
Hi Tamara! You could try swapping the coconut flour for almond flour, though it will have a different consistency. I’d recommend increasing the amount of flour a bit, and decreasing the maple syrup a bit as well. You’ll probably also need to chill in the freezer to get them firm. Let me know how it goes!
These are so good. My daughter asks me to make a batch every week so she can have her favorite after school snack. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!
Wonderful!! I’m so happy to hear that you and your daughter enjoy my recipe. 🙂 Thank you for taking the time to let me know!
Absolutely delicious. I made the base and formed it into truffle size balls. Then put in the freezer as the recipe said.
Melted some dark chocolate and rolled the truffles in the dark chocolate
Made a great alternative to truffles for Christmas.
Thanks so much for the recipe.
Make a real treat for having after going to the gym xx
★★★
Thank you so much, Emma! I’m totally drooling over your idea of making these into balls and rolling in dark chocolate. Thank YOU for taking the time to leave such kind feedback. 🙂
These look wonderful! For the chocolate chips, would you recommend semi-sweet, milk or dark chocolate?
Thanks Angie! I love using semi-sweet it dark. Hope you enjoy!
These are great! Turned out perfect. I added cacao nibs to the chocolate topping and it gives it a bit of a nice crunch.
Thanks for sharing.
★★★★
Ooh that sounds so good! So glad you enjoyed them Kay!
Hi! I want to make this recipe this weekend, do you know if I could use honey instead of maple syrup? And peanut butter instead of almond butter? Just trying to use what I already have on hand so I don’t have to go out and buy anything else. Thanks!!
★★★★★
Hi Amanda! Yep, those swaps should be just fine. 🙂 Hope you enjoy the bars!
This is awesome! I made my own chocolate : 3/4 cup coconut oil, 3/4 cocoa powder, 1/3 cup pure maple syrup, 1 tsp of vanilla. I got the grind your own almond butter at the store, so it was alittle chunky, but this turned out awesome!!!!
★★★★★
I love it!!! That topping must’ve been incredible. And that grind your own almond butter… mmm mmm! ..
I can’t eat maple syrup – absolutely no sugar, can I substitute it for another sweetener like erythritrol?
Have you tried sugar free maple syrup? That might work! Found here: https://amzn.to/2L7tt6X
Can you tell me what brand of paleo chocolate you recommend? Thanks!!!
YUMMMMM…..delicious! Just as good as it looks. This was my first try at using coconut flour and making any goodies! Worth the small effort! Thanks for the recipe!
★★★★★
Woohoo!! I’m so pleased that you enjoyed my recipe, Candi! 🙂 Coconut flour can kinda be daunting (I’ve got to be honest haha), so I’m super happy that your first experience was fantastic. Thank you for stopping by & letting me know!
I made these today and I’m sad that I find them bland. 🙁 I don’t want to throw them out (almond butter isn’t cheap!). Any thoughts?
Hi Jamie, so sorry to hear that! No one’s ever told me that these are bland. 🙁 Maybe try adding in a pinch of salt, or increasing the amount of chocolate in the topping?
There might be a problem with the almond butter that you used. If you make them with homemade almond butter, they are anything but bland, they are rich and delicious! Cant seem to get enough of them! Its so much cheaper to make your own almond butter and its really easy too. If you roast the almonds before making the butter, it makes it super delicious? I added a bit of coconut oil to the almond butter because it was bit dry and then because I didn’t have maple syrup on hand, used wild honey as a substitute. My whole family absolutely love them!
★★★★★
i love how simple these bars are…I am going to try them today for kiddos afterschool snack!! I am going to try with almond flour and let you know how it works!
I think these are going to go over well!! They are super tasty and took me under 5 minutes to throw together. I used only 1/3 cup maple syrup, 1/4 cup cassava, 1/3 cup almond flour, and 1/4 cup golden flax meal. I also mixed in some vit d emulsion for fun, and used half cashew butter! Thank you for an quick and easy recipe!
★★★★★
Easy and delicious healthy dessert!! Thank you! These lasted a week in my fridge and they were still awesome.
Hi Sara, that’s so wonderful to hear! I always try to create the easiest and healthiest desserts possible, so it’s such a treat (yep, pun intended lol) to hear when I hit the mark! Thanks for reporting back. Can’t wait to hear what you try next! 🙂
Thanks for your recipe!! These were easy to make and very yummy!! Any idea how many calories per bar?
★★★★★
Hi Christine! I just calculated the nutrition information. You can find it under the notes in the recipe. 🙂 Enjoy!
Thank you!
Hi,
Do you think I could use almond butter instead of coconut flour? I have an auto immune disease which is why I eat paleo but I also discovered I may be allergic to coconut:(
Hi Claudia, unfortunately, more almond butter won’t thicken the bars the way that coconut flour will. You *might* be able to use almond flour, but proceed with caution since almond flour is MUCH less absorbent than coconut flour. Start with 3/4 cup almond flour and experiment until you get the consistency you like (basically, they should be thick and dense enough to cut through.) So sorry to hear about your possible allergy to coconut. 🙁 Big hugs. xo
Hi can I use almond flour instead of coconut flour? I bought a giant bag from Costco that I need to use.
Hi Valerie, so funny, I just got asked this question! 🙂 Here’s what I said, “…almond flour is a lot less absorbent than coconut flour (like A LOT). I know a few people have tried using oat flour with success, but I worry that almond flour would not be sufficient for absorbing the almond butter and creating a nice, firm texture. I’d recommend starting with about 3/4 cup almond flour, and experimenting as needed.” Hope this helps!
Would I be able to use almond flour instead of coconut and stevia instead of maple syrup? Thx!
Hi Romy, almond flour is lot less absorbent than coconut flour (like A LOT). I know a few people have tried using oat flour with success, but I worry that almond flour would not be sufficient for absorbing the almond butter and creating a nice, firm texture. I’d recommend starting with about 3/4 cup almond flour, and experimenting as needed. Same for the stevia! Good luck–let me know how it turns out! 🙂
These almond bars look so creamy and delicious! LOVE them! Gorgeous photos as always, Demeter! 🙂 xo
★★★★★
Aw, thank you so much Marsha! I’m blushing! 🙂 xo
You are just the no-bake maven around these here parts! I love how simple the ingredient list is too!!
I have never been a woot woot-er, but I did use “lit” before, and my sister said to stop using that because I’m “too old”. To that I say “PISH POSH”.
Making my own nut butter is on my list of things to do…once I get a proper food processor! Until then, the jarred stuff will have to do 🙂
Thanks Jessica! That’s totally one of the best mavens to be. Lol. 😉 LOLOL on “lit.” I say use it as you please! I shall ditto your “pish posh!” Erik would definitely be in agreement with your use of that one. 😉 Happy nut-butter enjoying/future-making! xo
NO BAKE = so so so dangerous. I mean, that just makes them EASIER to eat!
Oh yeah!! Dangerously delicious! 😉
Woot woot for AB bars!!! Yep I still say it. If we if we keep saying it long enough it will probably become cool again…just like floral curtains. I appreciate how you give all the nut butters their proper chance to be showcased, no playing mess-prone goop favorites. But since today is about AB I have to admit I had an almond butter phase too actually. It was more about excessive almond butter eating though, not making. (Have you ever tried Justin’s vanilla AB? Probs not since you make your own. But I’m pretty sure there is crack (or frosting) in there, it’s too good.) I tried making my own once, overheated the food processor, never tried again. And honestly just the thought of that goopy greasy cleanup is enough to make me run to the store…I admire your lack of baking laziness. Buying it also means one less step between me and me shoving THESE in my face, and I am all for speeding up that!! A batch of these and the PB ones so I can do a side-by-side please! And if ever you do go back to cray 500 cookies a day BB, I call at least 50 of them, kay? Love ya❤️❤️
Hahaha. That’s why we’re besties. We staunchly refuse to follow the times. . Now what’s this all about floral curtains? Do you have a set picked out for me? Lolol. I’ve never tried Justin’s vanilla AB. But now I’m super intrigued! Yes on the overheating–AB takes a lot longer than you would think. I will label at least 100 of these cookies for you. 😉 Love ya more! <3 <3
First things first. And this is of utmost importance. Woot Woot is STILL cool. Says me. Because I say it all the time, so it just HAS to be cool, right?! Wait, since I’m the most uncool person on the planet, you probably should stop saying woot woot immediately. 😉 Second, I had ZERO clue you used to be an almond butter-making maniac! Oh I wish I was your bestie during THAT fun phase of your life! Now you are just a no-bake brainiac! (<– see what I did there?). These bars are FAB, just like all the rest of your no-bake bars! They look super creamy and uber dreamy… and most dangerous, because who in the world could eat just one (or 5) of these babies?! SO GOOD! Pinned of course! Cheers, sweets! And haaaaappy Galentine's Day!! XOXOXOX
★★★★★
Bahahahaha. Yep, you ALWAYS know how to make me crack up. Now that you said it’s cool, we can totally be “uncool/cool” together! Amiright??? <—There goes another antiquated little nugget for us to share. . No bake brainiac? Lolol. Yes, I saw it and it was spectacular. . Thanks for pinning, Chey! Happy Galentine's Day! xoxoxo
Get in my belly. Enough said!
Oh yeah!!
Hahaha! Demeter – I so so know what you mean about that almond butter grease that gets EVERYWHERE and, like you said, refuses”to let go of its dish territory” I still love making my own almond butter (mostly cos it doesn’t cost me a kidney and an arm) when I have the time – lately time has been in short supply for me – also in short supply are treats as decadent as these! You sure are a good almond-butter-making-maniac-sister to keep your sisters supplied with treats like these bars – though in the unlikely event that you end up with more of these bars than they are willing to take off your hands – well, I’d be delighted to help out! Just saying 😉
Riiiight? You do not mess with that ab grease! Lolol. Funny thing, around my parts almond butter and almonds cost about the same–so I just go for the ready made. Come on over, I saved ya nice big batch that my sisters “can’t” eat. 😉 🙂 Happy Monday!
Wow! I really admire your baking skills back then (and now too)! I’ve never made homemade almond butter before, but it’s on my list to do so. Sounds like you were overflowing with ALL of the food! Mmm and nice cream, I do love that and it’s been way too long since I’ve had some. You are the queen of no-bake recipes, Demeter! I’m loving that these gorgeous bars are just four ingredients. You really can’t get much easier (or more delicious!) than this. Pinning these beauties and can’t wait to make them. I’m love the chocolate and almond butter combo! Hope your week is off to a great start!
Aw, thanks G! 🙂 You’ve totally got to try it–but not before you have to bake like a million things. Lol. Thank you for the no-bake crown. 😉 I wear it (and drool over it) happily. Thank you for pinning and stopping by! Wishing you an awesome week ahead. xo
I loved this recipe! I’m really trying to eat healthier and recipes like this really help keep my sweet tooth at bay. I did find though that the bars didn’t set well and remained really squidgy, almost runny! I still ate them all so it wasn’t a problem, but could you add more flour if needed? The almond butter I used was shop bought and quite oily which may have been part of the problem.
Hi Lucy! Hm, yeah it does sound like it was probably the almond butter. Usually I hear the opposite—dry bars from dry almond butter. Make sure you give the almond butter a good stir so the oil incorporates with the more dry part on the bottom and let me know how it goes! 🙂
