Ingredients
Base
- 1 ¼ cup / 125g almond flour or ground almonds
- 3 tbsp / 34g granulated sweetener
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 3 tbsp / 42g coconut oil or butter, melted
- 2 tbsp / 32g almond butter unsweetened
Caramel
- 2 tbsp / 28g coconut oil
- ¼-1/2 cup / 50-100g granulated allulose or erythritol***
- 1 cup / 240 ml coconut cream
- Optional 1 teaspoon vanilla extract but I recommend it!
Chocolate topping
- ½ cup / 120g dark chocolate 85% cocoa solids minimum or sugar free chocolate, melted
- 2 tbsp / 28g coconut oil
Instructions
Caramel
- Melt the coconut cream, coconut oil and sweetener in a saucepan. Bring to the boil and then reduce the heat to medium. Let the mixture bubble away, stirring regularly, until it thickens and has reduced by half (about 10-15 minutes). Let the caramel cool for 10-15 minutes.
Base
- While the caramel is cooking, make the almond flour base. Place all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir together. Line a small baking tray (24cm x 16cm) with greaseproof paper. Press the mix firmly into the tray.
- Then pour the cooled caramel over the base and spread with a spatula. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes whilst you make the chocolate layer.
Chocolate Topping
- Melt the chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl over a pan of boiling water (bain marie) or in the microwave. Pour on top of the caramel layer and place in the freezer for an hour or until fully set.
- Remove from pan. Grease or wet a sharp knife and slice into squares.

- ***I tested the caramel with both allulose and golden erythritol. Allulose caramel stays completely smooth (as seen in the pics). The erythritol re-crystallises and turns the caramel slightly grainy, but nevertheless delicious.
- Choose whichever is available in your country. I've linked to allulose on Amazon US in the ingredients above. In the UK and Europe you can buy it from luckyvitamin.com.
- *** As for the amount of sweetener, choose according to your sweet tooth. The erythritol caramel worked fine for me with ¼ cup / 50g. The allulose sweetener was great at ½ cup.
- Note: I used 1 tablespoon of coconut oil for the chocolate layer in the images. This resulted in a crunchy chocolate topping. That's why I increased the amount of coconut oil to 2 tablespoon in the recipe card (and for my second try). This way, your chocolate won't crack when you slice the bars.
- Use coconut cream from a can. If you can only get hold of coconut milk, place it in the fridge before opening so the cream splits from the liquid. Use only the firm part
