Ingredients

For the Base:

2 cups almond flour
½ cup keto sweetener (e.g., erythritol or monk fruit blend)
½ tsp salt
¾ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Pecan Filling:

⅔ cup full-fat coconut milk (well-stirred)
¼ cup keto sweetener
12 quail eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 cup chopped pecans
¼ cup keto chocolate chips (optional)
½ tsp salt

Instructions

Preheat & Prep:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Make the Base:
In a medium bowl, combine the almond flour, keto sweetener, and salt. Add the melted butter and mix until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Press the mixture evenly into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with the back of a spoon or your fingers.

Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly while preparing the filling.
Prepare the Pecan Filling:
In a large bowl, whisk together the coconut milk, keto sweetener, quail eggs, vanilla extract, melted butter, and salt until smooth.

Fold in the chopped pecans and chocolate chips (if using).
Assemble & Bake:
Pour the filling evenly over the cooled crust. Use a spatula to spread the pecans evenly if needed.

Return to the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the centre is set and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Cool & Serve:
Let the bars cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.

Slice into squares and enjoy!

Pro Tips

For extra crunch, toast the pecans before adding them to the filling.
Refrigerate the bars for a firmer texture or enjoy them slightly warm for a gooey bite.
A sprinkle of flaky sea salt on top before baking adds a nice flavour contrast.
