ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups rolled oats
  • 1 1/4 cups almond flour
  • 1/3 cup almond butter
  • 2 tablespoons plus 2 1/2 teaspoons maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons unsweetened applesauce
  • 4 1/4 cups coconut oil
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 cups berries, of choice
  • 1 tablespoon chia seeds
  • 1 tablespoon tapioca starch
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat oven at 350ºF.

  • Step 2

    In a pan put the berries of choice (here blueberries and strawberries) on medium heat with chia seeds and tapioca starch until it’s cooked and you get a purée. Let cool.

  • Step 3

    Grind the oats into flour then add the almond flour, salt, oil, almond butter, baking soda and maple syrup. Combine everything together until you get a kind of crumble dough.

  • Step 4

    In a pan covered with baking paper, put half of your crumble dough and flatten it to get a base for your bars. Then add the berry purée and finally add the rest of crumble dough on top (try to keep some big pieces like for a crumble).

  • Step 5

    Cook for about 20-25 minutes and then let it cool for 1 hour and cut it into bars.
