Tell me, what’s your favorite KIND bar flavor? I might just take a stab at it, even though that expression totally spooks me out. My plan is to create the most epic homemade KIND bar recipe collection… and share all of the tasty recipes with you. 😉

Have you tried almond coconut kind bars? It’s one of my sister, Penny’s, favorite healthy snacks. And when I tell you it’s one of her faves, that means something. Due to the fact that she’s the Granola Bar Expert in our fam.

And while she loved my 5 ingredient Homemade Nut Bars and my Homemade Dark Chocolate Sea Salt KIND Nut Bars, she was still craving a bit of sumthin’ sumthin’ in the neighborhood of Easy, on the street of Almond Coconut.

(Yeah, I kinda let that analogy get away from me.)

When I shared today’s KIND Bars: Almond Coconut-style with Penny, she was over the moon. Won’t you try making some homemade kind bars of your own and tell me what you think? I can’t wait!
