Crunchy, salty, and delicious, these Dark Chocolate and Sea Salt Nut Bars are a homemade treat that’s easy to make and perfect for snacking. Packed with nuts, chocolate, and a hint of sea salt, these bars are a satisfying and indulgent snack.

Ingredients

For the Bars:

  • 2 1/2 cups unsalted nuts of choice (we use 3/4 cup cashews, 3/4 cup peanuts, and 1 cup almonds)
  • 1/2 cup puffed rice
  • 1/4 cup brown rice syrup
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

For the Chocolate Coating:

  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • Optional: flaky salt for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325˚F / 160˚C. Spread the nuts on a sheet pan and bake until fragrant.
  2. Prepare the Pan: Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper.
  3. Mix Nuts and Rice: Combine nuts and puffed rice in a bowl.
  4. Prepare Syrup Mixture: Microwave brown rice syrup, then mix with vanilla extract and salt. Pour over nut mixture.
  5. Form Bars: Press nut mixture into the prepared pan and bake.
  6. Cut Bars: Cool baked mixture, cut into bars, and transfer to a cutting board.
  7. Coat with Chocolate: Melt chocolate and coconut oil, dip bars, and drizzle with chocolate.
  8. Set and Enjoy: Refrigerate until set and indulge!

Notes

  • If you can’t find brown rice syrup, honey can be used as an alternative.
  • Store bars in an airtight container at room temperature or in the freezer, separated by parchment paper layers.
  • Line the pan with parchment paper and cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  • Adding coconut oil to chocolate helps with thinning and setting.
  • Allow excess chocolate to drip off bars to prevent a large chocolate ‘foot’.
