Coconut bars

Just a quick post for those coconut lovers comme moi! Really quick and easy peasy gluten free coconut bars. Makes about 8 mini bars.

GLUTEN FREE COCONUT BARS

• 1 Egg
• 75 ml milk (or coconut milk )
• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (or olive oil )
• 1 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 40 g almond meal
• About 120 g desiccated coconut (just enough to bring it all together)
• Pinch of salt

1. Mix the egg, milk, vanilla, honey and oil together until well combined.
2. Fold in the almond meal, salt and desiccated coconut until it all comes together nicely. Pat down with the back of your spoon into a greased cake tin.
3. Bake for 20-25 mins at 180 degrees Celsius. Cut out your bars whilst still warm as they harden slightly when cool.

OPTIONAL: If you want to make it a tad more indulgent, you can soak your coconut bars in a hot lemony syrup made by heating up: The juice of half a lemon/lime, 0.5-1 tbsp of honey and 1 tbsp of water.

These are really filling, so a little bite goes a long way!
