Keto chocolate nut clusters are a crunchy, sweet and satisfying snack made with nuts and sugar-free chocolate. The clusters typically consist of a combination of nuts such as almonds, pecans, hazelnuts, or walnuts coated in melted sugar-free chocolate and allowed to cool into small bite-sized clusters. Some recipes may also include shredded coconut, vanilla extract, or other low-carb ingredients to add additional flavor and texture. These clusters are a popular snack for those following a ketogenic or low-carb diet, as they provide a satisfying indulgence without the excess carbohydrates found in traditional chocolates and candies.
INGREDIENTS
- 9 ounces sugar-free chocolate chips
- ¼ cup unrefined coconut oil
- 2 cups salted mixed nuts
INSTRUCTION
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil and microwave until the chocolate is melted. Use a rubber spatula to mix until smooth. Let cool just slightly before using. Alternately, this can be done in a double boiler.
- Add the nuts to the bowl with the melted chocolate. Mix until all of the nuts are coating in the chocolate.
- Drop large spoonfuls of the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet. Be sure to space them out enough that they do not run together.
- Refrigerate until solid. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 weeks. Alternatively, you can store them in the freezer.
