Honey Almond Nut Bars
A low-carb Spanish-inspired almond bar built on ground almonds and toasted pecans, lightly sweetened with allulose and a whisper of honey, and finished with flaked almonds for crunch. Dense, buttery and nut-forward rather than cakey, it leans on fat and fibre instead of sugar for its structure and satisfaction.

Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 170°C (340°F) and line a small 10x10cm tin with baking paper, leaving an overhang on two sides.
2
In a bowl, whisk the melted butter, beaten egg, allulose, honey and vanilla extract together until smooth and glossy.
3
Fold in the almond flour, ground flaxseed, baking powder and salt until a thick, even batter forms.
4
Stir through the chopped almonds and pecans, distributing them evenly through the batter.
5
Scrape the batter into the lined tin and level the surface with the back of a spoon.
6
Bake for 16-18 minutes until the edges are golden and the centre is just set but still slightly soft.
7
Scatter the flaked almonds over the surface in the final 3 minutes of baking so they toast lightly without burning.
8
Cool completely in the tin on a wire rack for at least 20 minutes before lifting out using the paper overhang.
9
Slice into 2 squares with a sharp knife, wiping the blade between cuts for a clean edge.
