For the topping

Instructions

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. If your coconut flakes are not yet toasted, spread them in a dry skillet over medium-low heat and stir frequently until golden and fragrant, about 3–4 minutes. Transfer immediately to a plate to stop cooking.

Bring 1 inch of water to a gentle simmer in a small saucepan. Set a heatproof bowl over the saucepan, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water. Add the carob chips and coconut oil to the bowl and stir with a spatula until fully melted and smooth, about 3–4 minutes.
