Ingredients
  

For the Base:

2 cups almond flour

1/4 cup erythritol (or your preferred keto sweetener)

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Filling:

1/4 cup erythritol, adjust to taste

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted

1 tablespoon heavy cream (optional for a creamier texture)

For the Crumble Topping:

1 cup almond flour

1/4 cup erythritol

1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper, allowing some overhang on the edges for easy removal once the bars are baked.

    Prepare the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, erythritol, baking powder, and salt. Stir the dry ingredients until they are thoroughly combined. Next, pour in the melted butter, add the egg, and the vanilla extract. Mix these ingredients until a cohesive dough forms. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of the lined baking dish, ensuring it’s packed down well.

      Make the Cinnamon Filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the erythritol, ground cinnamon, melted butter, and heavy cream (if using) until the mixture is smooth and well blended. Once combined, carefully spread this sweet cinnamon filling evenly over the base layer in the baking dish.

        Prepare the Crumble Topping: In another bowl, mix together the almond flour, erythritol, and ground cinnamon. Pour in the melted butter and add any chopped nuts if you’re using them. Stir until the mixture resembles a crumbly texture. Evenly sprinkle this topping over the cinnamon filling for an added crunch.

          Bake the Bars: Place the baking dish into the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until the top is beautifully golden brown and the edges feel firm to the touch.

            Cool and Slice: Once the bars are done baking, remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool completely on a wire rack while still in the pan. Once cool, use the parchment overhang to gently lift the entire block of bars out of the pan. Cut into squares or bars of your desired size.

              Serve and Enjoy: These Keto Cinnamon Crumble Bars make a delightful afternoon snack or a satisfying low-carb treat. To store, keep any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
