Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 1 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup oat flour
- 1/3 cup melted refined coconut oil
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
Berry Middle
- 1 cup berries, fresh or frozen
- 1 1/2 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1 tbsp water
- 1/2 tsp cornstarch
Oat Crumble Topping
- 1/2 cup oat flour
- 1/4 cup oats
- 2 tbsp almond flour
- 1/4 cup melted refined coconut oil
- 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of salt
Instructions
- Set the oven to 350 degrees.
- Start with the base layer. In a mixing bowl combine the almond flour, oat flour, and salt.
- Add in the maple syrup, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract and combine.
- Add the mixture to a greased or lined 8×8 baking dish and evenly flatten. Set aside.
- Then for the berry layer add the berries, maple syrup, and water to a pot.
- Heat the berries on low to medium heat. Once the berries start to soften mash with a potato masher or fork to eliminate any large chunks. Add the corn starch and let the berries simmer and thicken for 5-10 minutes.
- Once the berries have thickened, remove from the heat. I recommend transferring to a bowl and placing in the fridge to thicken further.
- Lastly for the crumble topping combine the oats, oat flour, almond flour, and salt.
- Then add in the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract and combine. Set aside.
- Remove the berry mixture from the fridge and pour on top of the base. Spread evenly.
- Top with the crumble topping. It helps to squeeze chunks of the crumble topping between your fingers to combine/flatten and then place on top of the berry layer.
- Bake for 25 minutes.
- Let cool, cut into squares, and enjoy!
