Notes
- Be sure to buy dairy-free chocolate chips of you need the recipe to be 100% dairy-free.
- For a more cake-like texture, swap the coconut flour with 1 cup of oat flour and eliminate the almond milk. I love this version for breakfast.
- Be sure to store these bars in the refrigerator. They are best when eaten cold.
- Experiment with different stir-ins. Dried cranberries, shredded coconut, pecans, and walnuts would all be delicious!
