I made this for my kids the other day and it was gone within an hour! Okay, they had some friends over but still. It is really delicious and simple to make.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup almond flour
1/2 cup whole-wheat flour(I bet you could use a gluten-free flour for this to make the whole thing gluten-free)
1 cup rolled oats
2 Tablespoons ground flax seed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 cup sugar
Mix all of these ingredients together with a fork
Add:
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 cup either melted Earth Balance or coconut oil
2-3 Tablespoons of water (this you sprinkle in after you have added the oil. Kind of like when you make a pie crust.)
Mix together with a fork or a pastry cutter until well combined
Press 1/2 into a well greased square pan and bake at 350 for 15 minutes
Mix together whatever fruit you have on hand (about 2-21/2 cups)
I used frozen blueberries and chopped fresh apples but pears, strawberries, and peaches would be good too.
Mix the chopped fruit with 2 Tablespoons flour and 2 teaspoons cinnamon
Put the fruit on top of the baked crust. Add the second layer on top and bake for another 20 minutes or so or until slightly browned on top.
I served it with lemon Soy and Co yogurt on top. My kids had vanilla coconut yogurt on it and that was yummy too!
Enjoy. (Full disclosure: I doubled this recipe and cooked it in my favorite cast iron skillet. okay, I double almost every recipe I make. My husband says I cook for 20 but we always have hungry folks stroll into our house. And, if you want left-overs (and who doesn’t), or you are cooking for 20, double it.)
