Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh raspberries (or frozen, thawed)

1 cup shredded coconut (unsweetened)

1 cup almond flour

1/2 cup maple syrup

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 cup dark chocolate chips (optional, for drizzling)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.

    Mix the Wet Ingredients: In a mixing bowl, combine the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth.

      Combine Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, combine the almond flour, shredded coconut, sea salt, and baking powder. Mix well to incorporate all the dry ingredients evenly.

        Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until fully combined. The mixture should be thick but workable.

          Fold in the Raspberries: Gently fold in the raspberries, being careful not to mash them too much, so you maintain some whole fruit pieces.

            Transfer to the Baking Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, spreading it evenly. Press it down lightly to ensure it is compact.

              Bake: Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

                Cool and Slice: Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Use the parchment overhang to lift the slices out of the pan and place on a wire rack to cool completely.

                  Chocolate Drizzle (Optional): If desired, melt the dark chocolate chips in a microwave or double boiler. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cooled coconut slices for a decadent finish.

                    Cut and Serve: Once the chocolate is set, slice into squares or bars. Enjoy your delicious Sweet Raspberry Coconut Slices as a snack, dessert, or energy booster!
