Sugar Free Low Carb Granola Bars

written by Low Carb Way Of Life | April 23, 2020

Ingredients:

2 cups Almonds (roasted)
1/2 cup Pumpkin seeds (roasted)
1/3 cup Coconut flakes (unsweetened)
2 tbsp Hemp seeds
1/4 cup Sukrin Fiber Syrup Clear
1/4 cup Almond butter
1/4 cup Powdered erythritol (or any powdered sweetener)
2 tsp Vanilla extract
1/2 tsp Sea salt (omit if almonds and pumpkin seeds are salted)
2 medium Vanilla bean

Directions:

Line a 8×8 in (20×20 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, stir together the almonds, pumpkin seeds, coconut flakes, and hemp seeds. Set aside.

In a large saucepan, heat the fiber syrup, almond butter, powdered erythritol and sea salt for a couple of minutes, until easy to stir. Stir until smooth.

Remove from heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and vanilla bean seeds.

Stir the syrup mixture into the nut mixture.

Transfer the mixture to a lined baking dish and press firmly to create a smooth top. Use a large, flat spatula to create an even flat surface and press down firmly.

Cool completely on the counter. When fully cooled, gently lift the parchment out of the pan and transfer on top of a cutting board. Use a sharp chef’s knife to cut into bars using a firm downward motion (don’t see-saw back and forth).
