Ingredients
1 cup whole almonds, roughly chopped 1 cup slivered almonds 1 cup coconut flakes 1 large egg ¼ cup natvia sweetener (or similar granulated sweetener) 2 Tbsp almond butter (or any preferred nut butter) 1 Tbsp coconut oil 2 Tbsp pumpkin seeds 2 Tbsp sunflower seeds ¼ cup dark chocolate (min. 70% cocoa), chopped ¼ tsp salt
Method
Preheat oven to 180°C and line a 20cm square tray with non-stick baking paper. 1. Place first three ingredients on three separate baking trays and bake until golden brown. Watch oven closely as coconut will take around 3 minutes, slivered almonds around 8 minutes and chopped almonds around 15 minutes. Remove and cool (place nuts on a plate in fridge if wanting to cool super fast). 2. Add egg and sweetener to a medium mixing bowl and whisk until well combined. 3. Add nut butter and coconut oil to a mug and microwave for 30 seconds on high until smooth. Pour into egg mixture and whisk to combine well. 4. Add all remaining ingredients to egg mixture including cooled nuts. Mix to combine well. 5. Spoon into prepared tray and press down firmly with large metal spoon (or clean wet hands) to ensure mixture is packed down well. 6. Bake for 15 minutes or until top is golden brown. Cool in tray completely before slicing with a sharp knife. Store in airtight container in the fridge for up to one week.
