Paleo Blueberry Crumble Bars
INGREDIENTS
CRUMBLE
½ cup cassava flour
¼ cup arrowroot flour
¼ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ cup softened coconut oil
FILLING
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 tsp tapioca starch or arrowroot
pinch sea salt
1 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp lemon juice
PROCESS
Preheat oven to 350F. Take a 9 inch loaf pan, line it with parchment paper and spray it with coconut oil. Set aside.
CRUMBLE
Add all the dry ingredients of the crumble layer to a mixing bowl and mix using a fork.
Then add the maple syrup, vanilla and the coconut oil.
Using your hands mix the oil into the flour mixture until you get a crumbly dough. Keep aside.
FILLING
Mix all the filling ingredients in a mixing bowl gently using a spoon. Keep aside.
BARS
To the prepared pan, add half of the crumble mixture so as to form a layer on the bottom.
Next pour the filling mixture over it. Finally add the rest of the crumble mixture on top to form a sandwich pie.
Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake at 350 F for 45-55 minutes or until the top crumble layer looks golden and toasted.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into bars.
Enjoy these healthy sweet treats as a paleo dessert.
