Almond Coconut Bars

Thank god for honey! It's one of the approved sweet things a paleo person can eat (in moderation), so you should thow that all over your treats. Although I'm pretty confident the men and women of the Paleolithic era did not enjoy these bars after their workout, you can!

Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 20 minutes

Makes: 8 bars

Ingredients

1 cup almonds, chopped or slivered

1/2 cup coconut flakes 

1/4 cup almond butter

1/4 cup organic honey

1. Preheat oven to 400F degrees. 

2. In a medium bowl, combine the ingredients and mix until completely moistened. Pour the mixture into a wax paper-lined 6 -by-6 inch square pan. Using another piece of wax paper, flatten the mixture to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Remove the top layer of wax paper when mixture is evenly distributed in pan.

3. Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing into 8 bars.
