Crumble Topping

  • 1 tbls coconut oil
  • 1 tbls Coconut sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Sea Salt

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line an 9 x 9 baking dish with parchment paper

Make your blueberry filling

  • On medium heat, add your coconut oil and blueberries
  • Stir and use the back of your wooden spoon to smash the blueberries a bit
  • Add your lemon juice, maple syrup, chia seeds and sea salt
  • Saute until bubbly and blueberries get soft
  • Sprinkle your arrowroot powder over the top and stir well to combine
  • Simmer on low for another 5 mins, then remove from the heat and let it cool

Make your base

  • In a large mixing bowl add your almond flour and oat flour and combine
  • Add your coconut oil, sea salt, vanilla extract and coconut sugar and stir until all combined (will be crumbly)
  • In your lined baking dish pour the mixture in and press down firmly with your hands around all the edges and throughout
  • Pour your blueberry mixture over the top and spread it evenly

Make your crumble

  • In a small bowl combine your instant oats (or regular) with your coconut oil, seat salt and coconut sugar
  • Mix until combined
  • Sprinkle over the top of the other two laters in your baking dish

Bake

  • Bake for 40-45 minutes
  • Let cool and then slice. Wont hold up well unless you let cool completely. (I recommend putting them in the fridge for 30 mins after they cooled for best results)
  • Store in air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze then for up to 3 months

Notes

You can easily swap out a different fruit in this recipe! It would be super yummy with strawberries, cherries or peaches. Like I mentioned above you must let these cool completely before slicing for best results. I recommend putting them in the fridge for them to firm up before slicing. Serve on their own or these are super delicious with some dairy free ice cream!
