Nut and Chocolate Bars

The nut and chocolate bars are made gluten-free and with only four ingredients.

To make this recipe, I used a mix of nuts consisting of walnuts, almonds, dried red fruits, pistachio kernels, and peanuts.

I combined the nuts with maple syrup and puffed spelt, then cooked in an air fryer; alternatively, you can bake it in the oven.

Once cooked and cooled, I covered them with chocolate; after the chocolate solidified, I cut the bars.

With just a few ingredients, you’ll get bars with an irresistible taste!
