Ingredients
  

For the Shortbread Base
  • 1 cup Coconut Flour Consider using almond flour or oat flour for different textures.
  • 1 cup Almond Flour Can be substituted with cashew flour if needed.
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Oil Use vegan butter if you’re out of coconut oil.
  • 1/4 cup Honey (warmed) Maple syrup is a great vegan alternative.
For the Caramel Layer
  • 1 cup Almond Butter Peanut butter or sunflower seed butter work well too.
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract Omit if there are allergy concerns.
  • 1/4 cup Maple Syrup Agave syrup can be used instead.
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt Feel free to use coarse or flaky varieties.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine coconut flour and almond flour. Melt coconut oil and warm honey; then pour them into the bowl, mixing until you achieve a cohesive dough.
  2. Line a 6x6 inch baking dish with parchment paper. Pour the shortbread mixture into the lined dish, pressing it uniformly across the bottom. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until it turns golden brown and fragrant.
  3. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the shortbread layer to cool completely at room temperature.
  4. In a saucepan over medium-low heat, combine almond butter, coconut oil, vanilla extract, maple syrup, and sea salt. Stir until all ingredients are melted and smoothly combined. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool.
  5. Pour the smooth caramel mixture over the cooled shortbread base, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Place the baking dish in the freezer for about 1 to 2 hours until the caramel is firm.
  6. Melt your chocolate with coconut oil, ensuring it becomes completely liquid with a glossy finish.
  7. Once the caramel is hardened, pour the melted chocolate over the caramel, ensuring it covers the entire surface. Sprinkle a pinch of flaky sea salt on top.
  8. Refrigerate the assembled Healthy Twix Bars for an additional 5-10 minutes to allow the chocolate to firm up.
  9. Lift the bars out of the dish using the parchment paper and slice into even pieces.

Notes

For best results, allow the chocolate to chill for just 5-10 minutes. Use a sharp knife when slicing for clean edges. Make sure the caramel layer is completely cool before adding the chocolate.
