PUMPKIN PIE TWIX BARS
Pumpkin Pie Twix Bars
Oh my god, these are like little bites of heaven!
Baked cookie base, pumpkin pie caramel, dark chocolate sauce.
This recipe is broken up into 3 layers with only a handful of wholesome ingredients.
One of the first recipes I made for Nutritionbysam was my raw twix bars which are still a hit today! With the fall season in full effect, I had the sweetest idea to take a pumpkin twist on my classic recipe. This recipe involves a baked crust made from primarily coconut flour instead of the raw cashew cookie in my raw twix bars because I’ve been so in the mood for baking. Grab your ingredients and either a 6-6 or 8-8 baking pan & let’s do it.
Shoutout to @woodstockfoods for gifting their creamy cashew butter
that brings the pumpkin pie caramel to life.
Note: using a 6×6 baking pan will give you a thicker cookie while using
an 8×8 baking pan will be thinner.
Short Bread Cookie
2/3 cup coconut flour
1/4 tsp celtic sea salt
1 tsp pumpkin spice
1/3 cup softened coconut oil, butter, or ghee
3 tbsp maple syrup
Pumpkin Pie Caramel
1/3 cup maple syrup
1/2 cup cashew butter
1/3 cup melted coconut oil
4 tbsp pumpkin puree

Mix all cookie ingredients until fully combined, pushing out any clumps of the softened (not melted) coconut oil. Pat evenly down on baking pan lined with parchment paper and bake at 350 for 10 minutes until crisp and set aside to cool which making caramel.
For the caramel, mix all ingredients and heat over the stove for a minute or two until combined. Cool 10 minutes and pour on top of the cookie base. Freeze 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, melt chocolate over a double boiler, cool.
Take the pan out of the freezer, pour the chocolate layer, and freeze another 10″sh” minutes.
Slice into twix size or mini Twix size pieces, sprinkle with sea salt, and enjoy!
