Healthy Twix Bars

Ingredients

For the base

  • 125g coconut flour
  • 113g cup almond butter
  • 62g cup plant based milk
  • 3 tbsp rice malt syrup
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

For the caramel

  • 170g smooth almond/cashew/peanut butter
  • 85g cup rice malt syrup
  • 85g cup coconut oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the chocolate layer

  • 200g dark chocolate
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

Method

Line a square brownie tin with parchment paper. Place all the base ingredients into a bowl and mix well until combined.

Press and spread the base mixture into an even layer in the tin. Place in the freezer to set while you make the caramel.

To make the caramel, add all ingredients into a small saucepan and place on low to medium heat until it starts to bubble, stirring continuously. Take off heat and allow it to cool to room temperature.

Pour the caramel over the biscuit base, making sure it's in an even layer. Then place the tin back into the freezer for between 30 to 60 minutes or until the caramel layer has completely set.

Melt chocolate with the coconut oil in the microwave or in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan simmering water. Make sure the bowl doesn't touch the water.

Once the bars have set, slice them into rectangles, and dip into the melted chocolate. You can double dip for an extra layer of chocolate.

Place the bars back into the fridge or freezer for a minute or two until chocolate is set. Sprinkle over some flakey sea salt and enjoy!

The homemade Twix bars should be stored in the fridge or freezer.
