Instructions: Low-Carb Coconut Lime Bars Recipes
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch square baking dish.
Step 2: Make the crust: Mix almond flour, sweetener, coconut flour, lime zest, and salt in a large bowl together in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Cut in butter with a fork until combined and no lumps remain. Press crust mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
Step 3: Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven; keep the oven on.
Step 4: Make the filling: Whisk lime juice, coconut milk, sweetener, melted butter, and lime zest in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Mix until sweetener is dissolved; do not let boil. Gradually add beaten eggs, whisking constantly, until mixture is foamy and airy and starts to thicken, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove filling from the heat and spread evenly over the crust.
Step 5: Return to the oven and bake until filling is set in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 6: While the bars are baking, make the topping: Toast shredded coconut in a small skillet over medium heat until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and toss in lime zest.
Step 7: Remove bars from the oven and sprinkle topping over the surface. Let cool for 15 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator until chilled, about 2 hours.
Great “starting point”! I used (3) limes in total, and substituted the fake sugar with coconut sugar + added a hint of organic vanilla extract into the filling - came out great!
I saw the comments saying this was way too sour, so I halved the lime juice and doubled the coconut milk, and they were the perfect level of tart!
The crust was really good, the filling is WAY TOO SOUR!
Not good at all way too much lime juice...... awful I wish i could give no star
I loved this recipe. It is wonderful! I used Key Lime juice, I added a couple of tbsp fresh lime juice, and Stevia in the Filling. For the crust I substituted half almond flour & walnut flour and added 1/4 tsp ground Ginger. I didn’t put the coconut topping on and it’s still delicious.I think it’s important to make sure that the eggs are beaten well beforehand and added little by little to the lime juice coconut milk mixture and all the while blending them in. Also make sure that it continues to cook on low heat as you beat it until it looks airy, creamy and thickened.
Filling tasted great, but crust became very soggy. Not sure how to fix it.
Overall a good recipe. Very tasty. Like some other people I found it too tart and I ended up doubling the sweetener in the filling. My filling took about 10 minutes to thicken up. I would make this again.
This was a delicious recipe!! I was initially shocked at the carb count, but saw the author’s notes re the deficiency in Allrecipes. I did not have enough limes for 1 cup of lime juice so I substituted 3/4 of the amount with lemon juice. Other than that, I followed the recipe 100% and it came out delicious!! Mine tasted like lemon bars, due to the substitution. Oh I also forewent the toppings to save even more carbs. Great recipe to help the cravings during keto!
Didn't have limes so I used lemons. I used monkfruit as my sweetener. Came out spot on. Will make this again.
