Servings 16 pie bars
Ingredients
Crust Layer:
- 2 cup blanched almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut flour
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1/3 cup coconut oil melted/cooled
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cinnamon
Fruit filling:
- 1 1/2 cup berries fresh or frozen
- 1 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 tbsp coconut flour
Crumb topping:
- 1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
- 1/4 cup remaining crust layer crumbled
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350° and line a 9 inch square pan with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, vanilla, cinnamon, honey and coconut oil. Stir together until it is well combined.
- Press the dough (set aside 1/4 of dough to be used for the topping) into the bottom of the pan and bake for 10 minutes.
- For the filling combine the raspberries, maple syrup, coconut flour and coconut oil. Cook over medium heat, pressing the berries to break down. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the mixture is thick and no fully formed berries remain. It should look like a jam.
- Once the crust is cooked let cool for 10 minutes. While that is cooling add chopped walnuts and shredded coconut to the remaining 1/4 cup of dough.
- Spread the berry layer on the crust and then sprinkle the dough mixture evenly on top. Press down gently to make sure it stays in place. Bake for 15 minutes.
- Let pie bars cool, cut into squares, and store in the fridge for up to one week!
