Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 18-20 minutes


Ingredients:

- 4 Cups unsweetened coconut flakes
- 1 Cup almond flour
- 1/4 Cup applesauce
-1 egg
-4 Tablespoon melted butter
- 2/3 Cup walnut chunks (unsalted)
- 1/3 Cup Dark Chocolate Chunks (recommend Enjoy Life brand)
- Dash of sea salt (for mixture)
- Dash of sea salt for topping
-Coconut oil (for greasing pan)
- An 8X8 pan 

Directions:

1. Using a food processor add coconut flakes, almond flour, applesauce, egg, walnut chunks, butter and salt. Blend until mixture is well blended. 

2. Coat 8X8 pan with coconut oil. Press mixture into pan. It should be about 2 inches thick. 

3. Bake in the oven at 375 degrees for 18-20 minutes or until edges are golden brown. 

4. Top with chocolate chunks and sea salt immediately after removing from the oven. 



* If you have an egg allergy you can substitute the egg for an additional 1/4 Cup of applesauce. Mixture will be very crumbly without the egg, but still tastes very good.
