Ingredients

Dry Ingredients

1 cup nuts chopped
2/3 cup unsweetened raw coconut chips
¼ cup pumpkin seeds and/or sunflower seeds*
¼ cup ground flaxseed
¼ teaspoon salt optional

Wet Ingredients

1 tablespoon coconut sugar
2 tablespoons melted coconut oil
1 tablespoon unsalted natural creamy homemade almond butter or store-bought
3 tablespoons pure maple syrup

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper or greased foil. Set aside for later.
Add all dry ingredients to a large bowl: nuts, coconut, seeds, ground flaxseed, and salt, if using. Stir until well mixed.
Add all wet ingredients to a medium bowl: coconut sugar, coconut oil, almond butter and maple syrup. Whisk until well incorporated.
Pour wet ingredients over dry ingredients. Using a rubber spatula, stir and fold until very well mixed.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Using the spatula, nudge the mixture until loosely and evenly spread out. Then, use the spatula to press the mixture firmly down into an even, very tightly-packed layer.
Bake for 22-27 minutes. Mine took 25 minutes.
Place baking pan onto a cooling rack to cool for 40-60 minutes, or until completely firm. After, lift bars and parchment paper onto the cooling rack to finish cooling for 1-2 hours. Slice and enjoy! Storing instructions below.
