Cocoa Cinnamon BarsCake with Chia Seeds! Paleo & Keto Recipe
Why I love bars?! They are so easy to make, practical for packing and serving. You will see that I write cocoa cinnamon bars/cake. Why is that so?! Because you can choose a shape. You can make bars, or you can cut them in the form of cake. I prefer bars shape because it is subjective feeling that I can eat more than just one. Because if I cut the cake shape, one piece of cake will be enough.
This recipe is Paleo, low-carb/keto, gluten-free, grain-free, without sugar and milk.
