Healthy Almond Coconut Bars
This is definitely one of my favourite desserts I have made. I love love baking with coconut and almond flavours so I made these layered bars and then added chocolate - best combos ever!!
They are so so yummy and perfect for a snack or dessert. The honey and be substituted for maple syrup if you are vegan! You can also substitute the almond and peanut butters for any nut/seed butter!
I recommend storing these bars in the fridge or freezer!
