Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Spray an 8x8 silicone pan with avocado oil to prevent sticking.

In a bowl, combine 1/2 cup oat fiber, 1/2 cup almond flour, 1/4 cup sweetener blend, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and 1/4 cup melted butter.

Mix the ingredients together until they resemble sand and start to come together like a crust.

Press the mixture into the bottom of the 8x8 silicone baking dish evenly and firmly.

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes.

Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.

Pour almost 2 cups of sweetened condensed milk over the cooled crust.

Sprinkle 3/4 cup of toasted or untoasted unsweetened coconut evenly over the condensed milk.

Add 1/2 cup of chopped pecans on top of the coconut.

Sprinkle 1 cup of sugar-free chocolate chips over the pecans.

Return the dish to the oven and bake for about 25 minutes until bubbly and browned around the edges.

After baking, let the bars cool and then refrigerate for 1 hour before serving.
