Paleo Chocolate Chip Bars

Last updated on November 6, 2019 By Anna 1 Comment

I wasn’t prepared to like this recipe as much as I did, but these Paleo Chocolate Chip Bars won me over. Along with being gluten-free and dairy free (if you use non-dairy butter), they have a decent amount of protein per serving.

I use a brand called Garden of Life Raw mainly because I can buy it in small packets for a couple of dollars.
These are most definitely not low in fat because of all the nut flour and nut butter, but they are satisfying and should keep you full for a while.

Paleo Chocolate Chip Bars

Paleo Chocolate Chip Bars are easy, filling and very tasty! I like using Brazil nuts for selenium, but any nut works. For the nut butter, I use Trader Joe's.
