Ingredients

Scale

Bottom Layer

  • 2 cups Almond Flour (not packed, sweep off excess)
  • 1/2 cup Homemade Oat Flour (not packed, sweep off excess)
  • 1/4 cup Refined Coconut Oil (melted, to avoid coconut taste)
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt

Peanut Butter Caramel Layer

  • 2/3 cup Peanut Butter
  • 1/3 cup Maple Syrup
  • 2 tablespoons Refined Coconut Oil (melted, to avoid coconut taste)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract

Chocolate Layer

  • 3/4 cup Chocolate Chips
  • 1 tablespoon Refined Coconut Oil

Instructions

  1. Prepare Pan: Line an 8-inch x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside to prevent sticking and ease removal.
  2. Make Bottom Layer: In a mixing bowl, combine oat flour, almond flour, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and salt. Stir until a sticky dough forms. If the mixture is too dry, add a splash of water to help it bind together.
  3. Press Bottom Layer: Evenly press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan, creating a uniform single layer.
  4. Freeze Bottom Layer: Place the pan in the freezer while you prepare the next layer to firm up the base.
  5. Prepare Peanut Butter Caramel: In another bowl, mix together peanut butter, maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until smooth and well combined.
  6. Add Peanut Butter Layer: Pour the caramel mixture over the frozen bottom layer, spreading gently and evenly. Return the pan to the freezer for one hour to set.
  7. Melt Chocolate: Once the caramel layer is set, melt the chocolate chips and coconut oil in short intervals of 30 seconds, stirring between each until fully melted and smooth.
  8. Top with Chocolate: Pour the melted chocolate over the peanut butter caramel layer, spreading evenly.
  9. Freeze to Set Chocolate: Place the pan in the freezer again for 10-12 minutes until the chocolate layer is firm and hard.
  10. Cut and Store: Warm a sharp knife blade to slice into 12 bars to avoid cracking the chocolate. Store the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.

Notes

  • Use refined coconut oil to avoid adding a strong coconut flavor.
  • Ensure flour measurements are not packed to maintain accurate texture.
  • If the dough is too dry when mixing the bottom layer, add a small amount of water gradually.
  • Warming the knife helps to cut through the chocolate layer more cleanly.
  • Store bars in the fridge for best texture and freshness.
