Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted butter, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Press the dough into the prepared pan and bake for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. Set aside to cool.
  4. Combine peanut butter, maple syrup, and almond flour in a bowl. Mix until smooth, then spread over the cooled base.
  5. Place the assembled bars in the freezer for 1 hour to let the caramel set.
  6. Melt chocolate chips with coconut oil. Stir until smooth.
  7. Remove bars from the freezer, slice into 16 bars, and dip each into the melted chocolate.
  8. Drizzle remaining chocolate on top and sprinkle with flaky sea salt before freezing again for 10 minutes.
