DIRECTIONS:
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 300F and line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a food processor, process the peanuts, almonds and pecans until they resemble coarse crumbs with some larger pieces. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the shredded coconut, sweetener, protein powder, cocoa powder, and salt.
Step 3
In a microwave safe bowl, melt the peanut butter and butter together. Pour the melted peanut butter mixture over the nut mixture and stir well, tossing lightly. Stir in the vanilla extract. At this point, the mixture should clump together a little. If it doesn’t, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water until it does.
Step 4
Spread the mixture out evenly on the prepared baking sheet and press it down firmly with your hands. Bake 30 minutes, stirring halfway through and re-pressing it down. Remove and let cool completely.
Step 5
Break up any large clumps with your hands.
