BLUEBERRY CRUMBLE BARS (GLUTEN FREE & VEGAN)

Oh yeah, the whole they’re-usually-filled-with-dairy-eggs-and-gluten part. Fear not, friends! These Crumble Bars are Vegan, Gluten-Free, Oil-Free, and they’re Refined Sugar-Free too. I even have a Nut-Free substitute in the recipe notes, so pretty much anyone can eat them.

Made with only 9 plant-based ingredients, these Blueberry Crumble Bars are almost as good for ya as they are delicious! Can we also just take a moment to appreciate how cool Crumble Bars are? I seriously love how the same dough serves as both the base and the crumb topping.

Is that the multitasker in me speaking? Probably. Do I care? Nope.

This recipe screams Summer to me, but as you can also use Frozen Blueberries instead of Fresh, I’d say you could make it any time of year! You could also substitute the Blueberries for another Berry or Fruit of choice if you want to switch things up. The possibilities are endless…but the result will always be delicious 😉

INGREDIENTS

• For the Dough & Crumb Topping:
• 1 cup Almond Flour (not Almond Meal)
• ½ cup Tapioca Flour
• 1 ½ cup Quick Cooking Oats
• ½ tsp Baking Powder
• ½ tsp Salt
• ¾ cup Natural Almond Butter*
• ⅔ cup Maple Syrup
• Blueberry Filling:
• 16 oz. Fresh Blueberries
• ⅓ cup Maple Syrup
• Juice of 1 Lemon
• 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
• 1 tbsp Tapioca Flour (can also sub Cornstarch)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. First, prepare the Blueberry Filling. Add all ingredients to a medium pot and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring the mixture frequently to ensure nothing burns or sticks to the pan. The filling is “done” once it has thickened and most of the blueberries have popped. Set aside to cool.
2. Preheat the oven to 350F.
