Serves: 9-12

Time: 15min prep + 20min bake time

 

Ingredients:

For the Crust/Crumble:

9 Emmy’s Organics Vanilla Bean Coconut Cookies

1 cup almond flour

3/4 cup oats (or sub more almond flour, just gives an oaty crumbly texture)

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup maple syrup (or sweetener of choice)

1/3 cup cashew butter

1/4 tsp cinnamon

Pinch of salt

 

For the Berry Filling:

1 package frozen mixed berries

1/4 cup chia seeds

1 Tbsp lemon juice

2 Tbsp maple syrup

 

Instructions: 

1. Preheat the oven to 350F.

2. While the oven is preheating, make the berry center by combining the berries, lemon juice, and maple syrup to a small saucepan. Heat over medium-high heat. As the berries begin to heat up, crush them with a fork or masher to create a jam-like texture.

3. Remove from the heat and stir in the chia seeds. Set aside to thicken.

4. To make the crust, combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix with a fork, or your hands, until a crust-like dough has formed.

5. Press 1/2-3/4 of the mixture (Depending on how much you’d like to save for the topping) into an 8X8, parchment-lined, baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust is slightly golden.

6. Remove from the oven and pour the berry mixture evenly over the crust. Crumble the rest of the dough over the berries and return to the oven.

7. Bake for another 20-25 minutes or until the crumbly mixture on top is crisped to your liking. Enjoy!
