Coconut Lime Energy Bars

Servings: 9

Total time: 1 Hour 15 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

1 ½ cups almond flour
1 cup shredded toasted unsweetened coconut, plus more for garnish
1 cup pitted dates, tightly packed
2 limes, zested and juiced, plus more zest for garnish
¼ cup plus 1 teaspoon coconut oil, melted and divided
¼ teaspoon Diamond Crystal® Baking Salt
¼ cup white chocolate chips
1 teaspoon unsalted butter

DIRECTIONS

Combine almond flour, coconut, dates, lime zest, lime juice, ¼ cup of coconut oil and baking salt in a food processor. Pulse until combined and a sticky dough forms. Line a 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on two sides. Press mixture evenly into prepared baking dish. Cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
Remove slab from pan and cut into individual bars. Melt remaining coconut oil and white chocolate together in a microwave-safe bowl in 30 second increments, stirring between each increment, until smooth.
Drizzle each bar with white chocolate and quickly sprinkle with additional lime zest and toasted coconut to adhere. Transfer bars back to refrigerator until chocolate has set, about 5 minutes.
Serve and enjoy.
Tip: Refrigerate bars in an airtight container for up to 1 week
