Paleo Baklava Bars

This is not wrapped in pastry but still tastes good with this mix of toasted nuts and honey.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

¼ cup honey

¼ cup tahini or almond butter

½ cup almond meal

1 dash cinnamon

2 tbsp coconut flour

1/8 tsp salt

1tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 tbsp coconut oil

½ cup hazelnuts

½ cup walnuts

 

1. Chop nuts place in pan with almond meal, coconut oil, and salt until lightly toasted. Mix in honey until it bubbles, then remove from heat and let cool for 5 mins.
2. Next place nut mixture into a bowl and mix in almond butter or tahini extract and coconut flour.
3. Spread and flatten into 8×8 dish to cool.
4. Refrigerate or freeze for 30 mins.
5. Cut into squares.

 

I store mine in the freezer and nuts can be varied. Pecan, pistachio and macadamia nuts are all nice. Choose your combination.
