If you have a sweet tooth but you still want to lose weight with PCOS, this one’s for you!
No blood sugar crash, no feeling hangry later, and no feeling all bloated af after you have a serving (or 2). These cookie dough bars won’t bloat you, they won’t inflame you, and they won’t derail you from your weight loss efforts because they’re packed with 13 grams of fiber and 6 grams of protein per slice!

Cookie dough base layer:
1 ½ cups almond flour
½ cup peanut butter (cashew or sunflower seed butter work too)
½ cup maple syrup (I used Rx Sugar allulose maple syrup)
¼ cup melted coconut oil
1 teasoon vanilla
Generous pinch sea salt
½ cup chocolate chips (I like Lily’s or Bake Believe dark chocolate)
For the chocolate layer:
1 cup chocolate chips
¼ cup peanut butter
Pinch coarse sea salt
Instructions
Line a 9x5 baking dish with parchment paper
Mix all cookie dough base layer ingredient together and press into pan
For chocolate layer, melt chocolate chips with peanut butter (I microwaved in 30 sec intervals, stirring in bw but a double boiler works too) and spread over cookie dough base layer. Sprinkle with coarse sea salt, freeze, and slice. Keep in the freezer and grab whenever you need a healthy, sweet treat.
