Coconut Lover's Dream: Create Your Own Keto Bounty Bars in Minutes
Create Your Own Keto Bounty Bars in Minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 tsp butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 tsp Xanthan gum
- 2 tbsp Xylitol
- 1 1/2 cups shredded coconut
- Pinch of vanilla
- Pinch of salt
Instructions:
1. Begin by melting the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add the heavy cream and Xanthan gum, whisking until they are well combined. The addition of Xanthan gum will help thicken the mixture and create a creamy texture.
2. Stir in the Xylitol, shredded coconut, vanilla, and salt. Make sure to mix everything thoroughly, ensuring that the coconut is evenly coated and the ingredients are well combined.
3. Line a baking dish or pan with parchment paper. Transfer the coconut mixture into the lined dish, pressing it down firmly and evenly to create a smooth surface.
4. Place the dish in the refrigerator and allow the bars to chill for at least 2 hours or until they become firm.
5. Once the bars are firm, remove them from the refrigerator and cut them into your desired sizes and shapes. You can go for classic rectangular bars or unleash your creativity with different shapes.
6. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt your preferred keto-friendly dark chocolate, such as Lily's, in short intervals. Stir in between until the chocolate is smooth and melted.
7. Dip each coconut bar into the melted chocolate, ensuring that all sides are coated. You can use a fork or toothpicks to assist with the coating process.
8. Place the coated bars on a parchment-lined baking sheet or tray and return them to the refrigerator. Let them sit for about 20-30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set.
9. Once the chocolate has hardened, your Keto Bounty Bars are ready to be enjoyed! Store them in a cool, dry place or in the freezer for longer shelf life.
These Keto Bounty Bars are a true delight for any keto enthusiast. They offer a perfect balance of flavors with their creamy coconut filling and rich dark chocolate coating. Whether you decide to share them with friends or savor them all by yourself, these bars will surely keep your cravings at bay.
