Ingredients:

  • Lily’s Sugar-Free Chocolate Chips – The best low carb chocolate ever. You can use milk chocolate, dark chocolate, or semi-sweet chocolate. Lily’s has really raised the bar with their ingredients to make a wide variety of low carb candy.
  • Natural peanut butter – Check for added sugar and make certain it’s NOT listed on the ingredients. 
  • Coconut oil – Love using this healthy fat. 
  • Almonds – I like using slivered almonds as they’re easier to chew. 
  • Pecans – Toast them slightly for a better flavor. 
  • Unsweetened coconut– Optional and totally up to you to add or not.

Steps:

 

 

roasted pecans on parchment paper

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper. then spread out the pecans and almonds. (If almonds are already roasted, there is no need to roast again.) Drizzle melted butter and salt on top of the nuts and toss to coat evenly. 

Bake for 5 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.

These chocolate keto-friendly candies make incredibly delicious sweet treats to curb all your cravings for sweets. This low carb candy is not dairy-free due to the semi-sweet chocolate chips. It should be gluten-free, but I always suggest checking every products ingredients you use in your kitchen because added gluten can vary from brand to brand, or there may be cross-contamination.

Pecan Toasting Tips

Toasting the pecans brings out a fantastic flavor and crunch, making this Keto Easy Almond Bark recipe even tastier. If you don’t like pecans feel free to leave them out. This is one of those recipes that can be altered easily without compromising taste.

HOW TO STORE THIS KETO ALMOND BARK RECIPE

I would suggest storing them in the fridge for up to 5 days to keep them from becoming soft.

  1. I made this almond bark today! It was excellent. The Lilly’s chips melted beautifully with the coconut oil. I did add a bit of Truvia as I thought the dark chocolate was a smidge strong. Thank you for sharing.

  2. Still struggling to understand serving size. I get one can decide but as part of any restricted plan you need to know serving size. I am thinking the size of one square of chocolate is one serving size but what size of piece did you do your nutricianal count on?

  3. 5 stars
    LOVED this! Could not stop eating it! I added just a little liquid Stevia for a little extra sweetness. And I think next time I will add a little coconut extract. Thank you so much for sharing!

  4. 5 stars
    I had to make these again. We didn’t finish the first batch yet, but husband came home from the store and says look! Lily’s Milk Chocolate chips! OMG! So good. I did add 1/2 tsp coconut extract this time. So, so good!

  5. 5 stars
    OMG this recipe is so good! Made exactly as you said. My hubby helped me and we had fun. He was impatiently waiting for it to chill. So was I! He had to lick the bowl.

    We found Hershey’s Sugar Free Chocolate Chips.

    Delicious!

    1. It’s great that you and your hubby fixed this together. How fun! Glad you enjoyed it.

    1. I’ve never tried pumpkin seeds so I’m not sure how it would turn out but you can certainly try it.

    2. I made the Keto Easy Choco Almond Bark last night n put crushed almonds, added pumpkin seeds not salted n instead of peanut butter n sub n almond butter. Sprinkled unsweetened coconut w the crushed almonds n pumpkin seeds
      Twas perdy tasty 😋. I would def make r again 😊👍

    3. Omg!! Just made the keto almond ( cashew, pecan dried cherry) bark!!! So good!!! Thank you for this recipe. I know the cherries spoil the keto factor, I only used 4 pieces…. delish and super easy esp if you use roasted nuts!! Yum! Thks

    4. You are more than welcome to use almond butter. Many who follow a keto diet enjoy peanut butter.

    1. You can look at the labels of the ingredients used to determine sugar alcohols but I did not include them as most subtract to calculate net carbs.

  6. Would this freeze well? We only have 2 in the house that would eat this and it’s not something we’d have everyday, so curious of shelf life and if we can preserve in freezer. I could always 1/2 the batch, if needed 🙂
