Best Keto Samoa Bars Recipe How To Make Keto Samoa Bars

Ingredients

Cooking spray

2 c. almond flour

1/4 c. Swerve confectioners'

1/4 tsp. kosher salt

1/2 c. (1 stick) melted butter

1/4 c. (½ stick) butter

2/3 c. Swerve confectioners'

1/2 c. heavy cream

1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

1 1/2 c. toasted unsweetened shredded coconut

1/2 c. keto-friendly chocolate chips

1 tbsp. coconut butter

Preparation

Step 1Make crust: Preheat oven to 350º and line a 9"-x-9" baking pan with parchment paper; grease with cooking spray. In a large bowl, whisk together almond flour, Swerve, and salt. Add melted butter and stir to combine.Step 2Press mixture into prepared pan in an even layer and bake until lightly golden, 18 to 20 minutes.Step 3Meanwhile, make the filling: Add butter to a small saucepan over medium-low heat. When butter has melted and foam has subsided, stir in Swerve, cream, vanilla, and salt. Bring mixture to a low simmer and cook, untouched, for 15 minutes.Step 4After 15 minutes, transfer caramel to a heat-proof bowl and add shredded coconut. Stir in coconut and transfer to baked crust. Smooth into an even layer, let cool to room temperature, then transfer to refrigerator to firm up, about 1 hour.Step 5When ready to serve, combine chocolate chips and coconut butter in a medium microwavable bowl and microwave until melted. Stir to combine and drizzle over coconut. Chill 5 minutes in the refrigerator, then cut into bars and serve.

Using Swerve (an erythritol-based sweetener that’s keto-friendly) means that the caramel is so much easier to make than the regular, non-keto version. Just follow the timing in the recipe closely to get it to the right consistency. Then, you’ll fold in a boatload of toasted coconut to make the bars Samoa-worthy. Finally, the no-bake coconut-caramel fills the almond flour-based shortbread crust and you’ll top the whole thing off with a drizzle of chocolate. It’s simply heavenly.
