Ingredients
  

dry:

  • 1 c walnuts
  • 1 c coconut flakes
  • c cacao
  • 3 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp sea salt
  • handful of walnuts, chopped
  • handful of chocolate, chopped

wet:

  • c maple syrup
  • ½ c tahini
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 flax egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F.
  • In a medium bowl, make 2 flax eggs by adding 2 Tbsp of ground flaxseed & 6 Tbsp water then mix & let sit for about 5min.
  • In the meantime, place 1 cup of walnuts into a high-speed blender or food processor. Blend just enough to form a flour consistency then place in a medium bowl (separate from the flax egg).
  • Repeat step #3 for 1/2 c of the coconut. Add the desiccated coconut to the bowl with the walnut flour. Chopp the chocolate and add the remaining dry ingredients to the bowl and mix.
  • Add the remaining wet ingredients to the flax-egg mixture & stir again. Next, pour the wet ingredients into the dry & mix.
  • Place parchment paper into a bread tin (9x5 in or so) and pour the mixture into the tin. Place in the oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes. *Keep an eye on them! They may take more time depending on your oven. Top with flaky sea salt and enjoy with someone you love.
