Ingredients

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F and line a baking dish (I used an 8x6" dish) with parchment paper lightly greased with 1 tsp of coconut oil
  • Add the coconut flour, sweet potato, tapioca starch, and collagen into a mixing bowl and stir to evenly combine
  • Next, add the coconut oil, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and mix
  • For the gelatin egg (sub 1 regular egg if tolerated) add the water to a small sauce pot and slowly pour over the gelatin. You don't want any clumps, so lightly mix if needed. Allow the mixture to rest and bloom over 2-3 minutes.
  • Place the pot on the stove and turn in on low heat. Slowly melt the the gelatin (this will take just a few minutes) and remove from heat.
  • Once removed from the stove, vigorously whisk the gelatin egg until it becomes frothy.
  • Add the gelatin egg to the mixture immediately and mix to combine.
  • Pour the dough (it will be fairly dry) into the pan and evenly flatten with the back of a spoon.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 minutes
  • Remove the bars from the oven and allow to cool for 10-15 minutes
  • Slice evenly into squares (you should have 9 bars) and top with chopped bacon
  • Serve immediately or store in the fridge for 2-3 days and reheat under the broiler in the oven.
