I tried thin bark for the first time couple weeks ago and instantly fell in love. It was loaded with coconut, almonds, and dark chocolate. So simple but so satisfying. I could not wait to re-create it with ingredients that I don’t mind eating every single day. Even though the one from the store was fairly “healthy” I knew I could do better at home.

This thin bark is made with zero processed ingredients. Only wholesome, get in my belly, without any guilt type of ingredients that you wont mind eating for breakfast, snack or dessert. There’s also good things, like chia seeds and flax seeds. I know both have been around for a while now but I’m just jumping on this “superfoods” bandwagon. So far, I’ve been loving it. If you’re not familiar with chia seeds or flax seeds, google it and I think you’ll be surprised as much as I was of their nutritional benefits.

Now to make this bark, you mix the dry ingredients with the wet. Bake for 10-14 minutes. Just keep an eye on the bark as it burns really easily. For my oven, I found that 11-12 minutes was just the perfect time to get the bark golden in color. Time will obv vary depending on your oven. But all you want is a nice golden (toasted) color. It will be soft and mushy after you take it out of the oven but don’t worry as the bark chills it will harden and crisp up.

Then you melt the chocolate, spread onto the bark, and chill for 30 minutes or so until it’s solid. Break into bite-size pieces and enjoy. Leftovers will stay crisp as long as they are stored in a sealed container in the refrigerator.

    This looks amazing! I’m always looking for snacks like this to throw in my hiking bag for those day trips where I know (knowing me) am going to want something sweet to snack on but will also be good for energy! I’m excited to make these before my hiking trip this weekend. Thanks for sharing!!!!
