Ingredients:

• 1 cup brown Teff grain
• ¼ cup roughly chopped roasted, unsalted peanuts
• ¼ cup honey
• 1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• ¼ cup roughly chopped dark chocolate (1.25 ounces)
• ½ teaspoon flake salt

.

Directions

1. Place a medium bowl near the stove. Line a cutting board with parchment & draw an 8×8-inch square in the centre.
2. In a skillet over medium-high heat, toast teff until it starts popping and smells nutty, about 2 minutes. Stir in peanuts and set aside.
3. In a pot, boil honey over medium heat. Lower the heat, swirl, then simmer 1 minute. Whisk in peanut butter, simmer 1 more minute. Stir in vanilla and sea salt.
4. Mix in the toasted teff and peanuts. Spread onto parchment in a loose 8×8-inch layer. 4. Cool 5 minutes.
5. Sprinkle chocolate on top and press it in evenly. Smooth into the square shape using your fingers, a spatula, or a baking dish. Sprinkle flake salt on top.
6. Let firm for 10 minutes, then cut into 16 squares. Bars will continue to firm as they cool.
