- ½ cup unsalted pumpkin seeds
- ½ cup virgin coconut oil
- ½ cup cocoa or cacao powder
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 1 tablespoon smooth almond butter optional
- pinch fine sea salt
In a medium saucepan, melt the coconut oil over low heat. Remove from heat and whisk in the cocoa (or cacao) powder, maple syrup, and almond butter (if using) until smooth.
Add a pinch of sea salt to taste. Stir in pumpkin seeds.
With a spatula, remove the chocolate mixture onto a parchment-lined pan or sheet and smooth out until it's about ¼-1/2 inch thick. Place into freezer on a flat surface for about 15 minutes, until frozen solid.
Once frozen, break into bark pieces. Store in the freezer until ready to eat. It melts fast when left out of the freezer!
