If you’re looking for a simple, satisfying treat that fits into your anti-inflammatory lifestyle while still tasting completely indulgent, this nutty chocolate bark is the perfect recipe. With just six wholesome ingredients, it’s gluten-free, dairy-free, and full of rich textures and flavors that satisfy those chocolate cravings, without any of the guilt.

Dark chocolate (especially varieties above 70%) is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, thanks to powerful plant compounds called flavonoids. These antioxidants help support heart health, reduce oxidative stress, and even support mood and brain function. It’s a decadent yet nourishing base for this bark.

Many store-bought chocolate treats are filled with dairy, gluten, refined sugars, and preservatives. This homemade nutty chocolate bark is completely dairy-free and gluten-free, making it suitable for people with food sensitivities or those following a plant-based, anti-inflammatory, or paleo diet.

Ingredients

  • 5.3 oz or 150g of 70% dark chocolate
  • 1/2 cup or 50g shelled pistachios
  • 1/2 cup or 50g blanched almonds
  • 1/2 cup or 50g pecan nuts
  • 1 tbsp desiccated coconut
  • One pinch sea salt

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 175C / 350 F  (fan oven).

  2. Place the pistachios, almonds, and pecans on a baking tray and bake for 12-15 minutes. Watch that they do not burn or turn brown. Whenever you start smelling the aroma of roasted nuts, it is time to remove them from the oven.

  3. Meanwhile, melt the chocolate in a bowl over simmering water. Line a baking dish or tray with baking paper.

  4. When ready, remove the nuts from the oven, let them cool for a few minutes, and then roughly chop them with a knife on a wooden chopping board.

  5. Once the chocolate is melted, pour it over the baking tray and evenly spread it with a spatula. Sprinkle with chopped, roasted nuts, add the desiccated coconut, and add a good pinch of sea salt.

  6. Let the bark cool to room temperature. Once it’s cool, you can break it into pieces and enjoy it.
