Healthy Twix Cups (Vegan)
When I saw these pop up on my page I had to try them! They looked just like the candy bar version but with all healthier ingredients. They literally blew us away. I think we scarfed them all down in 30 minutes. If you like these you will love my NO BAKE SNICKERS OAT CUPS (VEGAN).
These are super simple with a total of only 7 ingredients, to throw together in the morning and just be patient, and let them set in the freezer for 2 hours. You will not be disappointed!! The center literally tastes like caramel and the base like a yummy cookie. If you like these, you will love my viral NO BAKE 6 INGREDIENT PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE OAT CUPS!!

Healthy Twix Cups
Equipment
Ingredients
Base:
- 1 cup almond flour
- 1 tbs protein powder or coconut flour
- 3 tbs maple syrup
- 2 tbs olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Caramel Layer:
- 1/3 cup peanut butter (or almond butter)
- 3 tbs maple syrup
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Chocolate Topping:
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1 tsp olive oil
Instructions
Base:
- Preheat your oven to 350℉ Spray a mini muffin tray with oil or use a silicone mini muffin tray and skip the oil.
- Mix all of the base ingredients in a small bowl using a fork. Divide the mixture evenly to the muffin tray, filling about 1/3 full. Press down gently so there is flat top. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Caramel Layer:
- In a small bowl, whisk together all of the caramel layer ingredients until smooth. Once the base layer has completely cooled, dollop on the caramel (about 1 tsp to each) and flatten out the tops with a small spoon.
Chocolate Layer:
- Melt the chocolate chips with the oil over low heat, stirring constantly to avoid burning the chocolate. Pour the chocolate to fill the tops of each cup. Transfer the muffin tray to your freezer and allow to set for 2 hours.

I’m not vegan but am soon going to a grandchild’s 1 st birthday soon . There will be many vegans there so I wanted to make a delicious after dinner snack bite everyone can enjoy . Easy to make too . Thanks for the recipe. 🤩
Hi Joanne, glad you liked them and I’m certain everyone at the party will too! Have a great time!!!
Looks delicious. Can I use coconut oil instead of olive oil?
HI Veronica, absolutely yes – any neutral flavored oil works here!
These are SO GOOD. Granted my kids rejected them on the basis of “there is peanut butter” and “it looks sticky” respectively, but I don’t really care because that means I get more of them!
I did make some substitutions:
– regular white flour because I didn’t have coconut. This made them not gluten free but I’m ok with that.
– coconut oil instead of olive oil. I thought this would make up for not having coconut flour, in the taste department. Besides, I just really like how it does in sweet recipes.
Hi Naomi, thanks so much for sharing your feedback with us – super helpful! And thanks for the kind rating!
I made these today, and although they tasted great, my bottom crumbled and none of them stayed whole. Would replacing the olive oil with melted coconut oil help hold them together since coconut oil is solid at room temp?
Hi Karla, I’m not sure why that happened… but oil is oil. You can use any neutral oil here you like!
Same thing happened to me 🙁
maybe you didn’t press down enough the base, that happens sometimes.
Just wanted to clarify the total amount this recipe makes, is it 18 or 24? Thanks so much! I just made them & did it for 18, but I had leftover caramel. Can’t wait to try them.
Hi Jenn, Mine made 18 mini cups~
These are delicious and so easy! Big hit, thank you!
Hi Katherine – so glad they were enjoyed! Thanks for the sweet message!
This recipe looks amazing and I can’t wait to try it! Can muffin tin liners be used?
Hi Mia, yes absolutely use liners!!!
I just made this and it tastes legit just like a Twix bar! One of my favorite candy bars of all time, but sadly, I do not eat anymore. I love this healthy version and it is now going to be a regular treat for our family. Thanks for sharing!
Hi Ursula, me too – I ate a few Twix in my younger years! Love these they are so close to the original.!!!
family loved it!
thank you
HI Brenda, Glad the cups were enjoyed by all!
Can you use avocoda oil instead
Hi Tracey, absolutely yes!
Can you use avocoda oil instead
HI Tracey, yes avocado oil is a neutral flavored oil and can be used!
is that’s 13g of Carbohydrates per cup?
2nd recipe from your website that I’ve made today and 2nd hit! Absolutely delicious, thank you!
Hi Tessa, thank you so much for trying out both recipes! Glad they were winners!
Amazing recipe and very tasty….Highly recommended 👌
Hi Maria, glad you liked them and thanks for trying them out!
This nutrition is for 1 piece? Thanks
Hi Sanja, yes, the info is for one twix cup. Thank you!
I was wondering the same with the nutrition on calories specifically. If it’s serving is 18 of them, would it be that much or would it be divided up per cup?
I don’t have protein powder or coconut flour. Is it necessary for the recipe?
Hi Chel, I would recommend oat flour!
