Ingredients

Crust

11/2 cup almond flour
3 tbsp coconut oil
2 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp sea salt

Caramel

3/4 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup full fat coconut milk (use the cream on the top)
2 tbsp nut butter of your choice

Chocolate

1 bar Elements Truffles Sea Salt Turmeric bar

Instructions:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures that the oven reaches the right temperature for baking the crust.

  2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted coconut oil, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix until well combined. Then, press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a pie pan, forming the crust.

  3. Bake the Crust: Place the pie pan in the preheated oven and bake the crust for about 10 minutes, or until it turns golden brown. Baking the crust helps it set and gives it a delicious crunch.

  4. Cool the Crust: Once baked, remove the crust from the oven and allow it to cool for about 10-15 minutes. This cooling period helps the crust firm up and become easier to work with.

  5. Prepare the Caramel: While the crust is cooling, it's time to make the caramel. In a saucepan, combine maple syrup and coconut milk. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring continuously, until it thickens and reaches a gooey caramel texture.

  6. Add Nut Butter: Once the caramel has formed, add your choice of nut butter to the warm mixture. Stir until the nut butter is fully incorporated, adding richness and flavor to the caramel.

  7. Pour Caramel Over the Crust: Once the crust has cooled, pour the warm caramel mixture evenly over the crust, covering it completely. This creates the delicious caramel layer in the Twix bars.

  8. Cool in the Freezer: Place the pie pan with the caramel-covered crust in the freezer and let it cool for about an hour, or until the caramel layer has set and become firm.

  9. Melt the Chocolate: While the bars are chilling in the freezer, melt the chocolate bar using a double boiler or microwave. Stir until smooth and creamy.

  10. Cut and Dip: Once the caramel layer has set, remove the pan from the freezer and cut the crust/caramel pie into long sticks, resembling the size of a Twix bar. Dip each stick into the melted chocolate, coating it evenly. Place the coated bars on a parchment-lined baking sheet.

  11. Chill Again: Return the bars to the freezer and let them chill for another 20-30 minutes, or until the chocolate coating has hardened.

  12. Enjoy: After chilling, your Healthy Twix Bars are ready to be enjoyed! Serve them chilled and savor each delicious bite of these homemade delights.

Storage Suggestions:

  • Refrigerator: After making the bars, put them in a container and store them in the fridge. This keeps them fresh and stops them from getting too soft.
  • Freezer: If you want to keep the bars for longer, you can freeze them. Put them on a tray in the freezer until they're solid, then transfer them to a bag or container. They'll stay good for a few months.
  • Thawing: When you're ready to eat them, take them out of the fridge or freezer and let them sit at room temperature for a bit to soften up. Then, dig in and enjoy!
