Calories: 429kcal
Ingredients
- 2½ cups pecans
- 2 cups walnuts
- 1/2 cup almonds
- 1/2 cup + 1/4 cup divided unsweetened coconut
- 5 Tbsp butter divided
- 6 Tbsp heavy whipping cream
- 4 Tbsp Monk Fruit Blend with Allulose
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 salt to flavor
- 1/4 cup Lily's Chocolate Chips
- 1/4 tsp coconut oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 °F (177 °C). Roast pecans, walnuts, almonds, and ½ cup of unsweetened coconut by evenly placing them on a baking sheet covered in parchment paper for 10 minutes. Stir halfway through cooking.
- While the nuts are roasting, combine 4 ½ tablespoons of the butter, Monk Fruit blend with Allulose, and heavy whipping cream in a saucepan and heat over medium heat until the sweetener is fully dissolved. Cook and stir continuously until the mixture becomes a deep golden color. Once it becomes darker and begins to thicken, add the remaining butter, cinnamon, and vanilla. Stir until it is smooth.
- Pour the roasted nuts and coconut into the saucepan and stir until the nuts and coconut are coated well. Spread the mixture on parchment paper and sprinkle the salt on top.
- Place the Lily’s Chocolate Chips and coconut oil in a small glass bowl and heat for 30 seconds in the microwave. Take the bowl out and stir well. Cook in 15-second intervals, stirring after each one, until the chips are melted. This time may vary according to microwave power levels.1/4 cup Lily's Chocolate Chips, 1/4 tsp coconut oil
- Once the chocolate and coconut oil are melted, drizzle them over the nut mixture. Finally, sprinkle the remaining unsweetened coconut on top. It'll stick to the melted chocolate.
- Keep the finished mixture in the fridge until fully hardened.
Notes
Note: The erythritol in the Lily's Chocolate Chips and the monkfruit blend with allulose were not included in the nutritional info since most subtract to calculate net carbs.
Top Tips:
- When melting the butter and heavy whipping cream together, do so over low heat.
- Evenly distribute the cinnamon and vanilla extract throughout the mixture for a consistent flavor.
- Start with a pinch of salt and taste as you go, adding more if needed.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the nut clusters in a back-and-forth pattern.
- Allow the clusters to cool completely on the baking sheet.
