Low Carb Vegan Nanaimo Bars
Calories 510kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup pecans (ground)
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1/2 cup coconut (ground)
- 1 cup macadamia nuts (ground)
- 1/2 cup coconut (ground)
- 1/4 cup coconut oil
- 1/4 cup warm water
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 10 drops liquid stevia
- 1/4 cup chocolate (ground)
- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
Instructions
- In a small mixing bowl, combine ground pecans, cocoa powder and softened coconut manna/butter.
- Mix until a dough forms.
- Press crust dough into an 8x8 baking dish.
- Chill crust for about 15 minutes.
- While crust is soaking, toss soaked nuts, coconut manna/butter, coconut oil, vanilla extract and liquid stevia into your blender or food processor and blend.
- Slowly add in the 1/4 of water and keep blending until the mixture is totally smooth.
- This took me about 3-5 minutes (with stopping to scrape down the sides).
- Pull crust from the fridge and smooth the filling over top as evenly as possible.
- Return to the fridge for another 45 minutes.
- Make the glaze by melting the chocolate and coconut oil over low heat, stirring well.
- Pour over the smoothed filling (it helps to smooth it once more once chilled), and swirl the dish until the glaze is evenly distributed.
- Chill for another 15 minutes, slice and enjoy! Store in the fridge.
