Keto Chocolate Chip Granola Bars

If you have been on the Keto diet for a while, my guess is that you miss granola bars! However, you can have the best of both worlds with our Keto Chocolate Chip Granola bars! A combination of chopped nuts like pecans, pumpkin seeds, and walnuts are blended together to form a crumbly mixture that is held together with an egg white, ground flaxseeds, and almond butter which is also sweetened with monk fruit. The mixture is pressed hard into a cake pan and baked until nicely golden brown and delicious! Pecans give such deliciously sweet and caramelized flavor when toasted! The pecans paired with the stevia-sweetened chocolate chips are very reminiscent of chocolate chip cookies, in our opinion!

Is granola Keto?

Granola is not typically Keto! However, you can make granola Keto by replacing the oatmeal typically used with ingredients like nuts and nut butter like we have here. Using a sweetener like monk fruit makes it sweet without adding carbs or spiking blood glucose!

How to make Keto granola bars

Keto granola is made by taking chopped Keto-friendly nuts and blending them with sweetener, ground flaxseeds, eggwhite, and almond butter to hold it together. The mixture is pressed tightly into a square cake pan and baked until golden brown and toasted on the edges. Once cooled, the bars can be cut and divided, which is perfect for meal prepping and portion control! You can even freeze leftover bars for future use. Doing so is helpful when you are on a diet and need something quick and on-the-go.

Can I swap out the nuts?

Feel free to swap out the nuts with other low carb nuts like macadamia nuts or almonds. If you do a blend of nuts, ensure that the total weight of nuts equals the same as we used in the recipe here.
