Low Carb Chocolate Almond Butter Bark (Keto, Vegan, Paleo)

Homemade sugar-free chocolate bars with crunchy crispy almonds  = irresistible almond bark! This easy recipe comes together in under 5 minutes using almond butter. Dairy-Free, Keto, low-carb, Paleo and Vegan friendly!

Delicious Homemade BARK

I'm a little bit OBSESSED with bark. So far I've made Peanut Butter and Cinnamon Praline flavors. Have you tried them? OMG. This stuff is SO good.

The PB Bark has actually been the #1 recipe on Pretty Pies ever since I published it. And for good reason. It's AMAZING.

And this NEW Almond Bark is just as crunchy, munch, EASY and delicious! So flavorful with crunchy bits of almonds in every chocolaty bite!

Healthy and Delicious

This bark is absolutely scrumptious and made with wholesome ingredients. You'll LOVE the:

• Crunchy, munchy add-ins
• Incredible texture (that won't break my teeth, haha)
• Healthy ingredients -- no sugar, dairy, or soy here! Just the good stuff.
• Dose of good fats from coconut oil and almond butter. YAY!
• Flavor! Almond is SO GOOD.

Macros

For those counting macros and cutting carbs, you'll be delighted to know this bark has only about ONE net carb per piece.

How to Make Chocolate Almond Bark

This bark is incredibly EASY to make, especially if you blitz it in a food processor! But whisking works, too!

1. Line a small baking sheet with parchment. *don't skip this or it sticks* Set aside.
2. Mix all ingredients (except the chopped almonds) in a food processor, mixer, or whisk by hand.
3. Taste and adjust to your preference. You can add more sweetener such as stevia, additional cacao for a more intense chocolate flavor, salt to balance the sweetness, or almond extract for a pop of intense almond.
4. Pulse or stir in your choice of almonds (such as almond slices, slivers, whole or chopped almonds)
5. Spread the chocolate on the parchment-lined baking sheet with a spatula.
6. Sprinkle a few almonds on top, if you like.
7. Freeze for about 30 minutes, until firm.
8. Chop or break into pieces. Enjoy!

Tips and Tricks

I always add some almond extract to my homemade almond butter. Yum! If you've never tried it, it's another MUST. Add almond extract to a smoothie with banana, spinach and almond butter, too. Super delish!

My favorite way to eat this is STRAIGHT FROM THE FREEZER. It doesn't get rock hard like regular chocolate does. SO GOOD.

How to Store

This bark *must* be kept refrigerated or frozen since it melts at room temp.

Pro tip: Eat it straight from the freezer! No need to thaw. It's perfectly crunchy without being so hard it hurts your teeth!
