Description

The easiest 4-ingredient no-bake treat that I always have stored in my freezer! These healthy caramel almond squares are packed with healthy fats and easy-to-digest ingredients “legal” on the Specific Carbohydrate Diet.


Ingredients

Scale

Bars: 

  • 2/3 cup creamy cashew butter
  • 2 tbsp honey 
  • 2 tbsp coconut flour
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 
  • 2 tbsp. sliced almonds

SCD/Paleo Caramel Sauce: 

  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 1/3 cup creamy cashew butter 
  • 1/3 cup honey

Instructions

  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the cashew butter and honey. Microwave for about 45 seconds until both are melted enough to easily stir together. 
  2. Stir in the coconut flour and vanilla extract.
  3. Press the mixture into a 8 x 8″ pan lined with parchment paper. Lightly press the sliced almonds into the top of the mixture and place in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
  4. As the bars are freezing, make the SCD/Paleo Caramel Sauce according to this recipe.  
  5. After the bars have frozen, slice and drizzle them with the caramel sauce. Freeze for another hour and serve chilled!
