Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Almond flour
- 0.25 cup Cocoa powder
- 0.5 cup Coconut sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsweetened almond milk
- 0.25 cup Virgin coconut oil, melted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.75 cup Dark chocolate chips (dairy-free)
- 0.25 cup Sliced almonds
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, letting it hang over two sides to lift out the dessert easily after baking.
Step 2
In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, cocoa powder, coconut sugar, baking soda, and salt ensuring there are no lumps.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until you achieve a smooth batter.
Step 5
Fold in the dark chocolate chips gently to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Transfer the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Step 7
Sprinkle the sliced almonds over the top of the batter, pressing them gently so they adhere.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before lifting out using the parchment overhang.
Step 10
Slice into bars or squares to serve. Enjoy your Mediterranean Diet Almond Chocolate Dairy-Free Dessert!
