Ingredients
The following ingredients have 8 Servings
- 1 1/4 cup oat flour
- ½ cup almond flour (not meal)
- 3 tbsp arrowroot powder
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ tsp apple pie spice
- 3 tbsp melted coconut oil (or (vegan) butter)
- 3 tbsp coconut sugar
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 cup apple sauce
- 2 cups thinly sliced apples (about 1 large or 2 small apples)
- ¼ cup arrowroot powder*
- 1 tsp apple pie spice
- ¼ cup coconut sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2/3 cup quick oats
- 1/2 cup coconut sugar
- 4 tbsp melted coconut oil (or (vegan) butter)
- 1/4 cup gluten free flour*
Instruction
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large bowl, mix together the oat flour, almond flour, arrowroot powder, salt and apple pie spice.
- Mix in all remaining ingredients. I suggest using your hands to make sure everything is well incorporated.
- Add to an 8x8 pan, greased, and press down with your fingers to spread it evenly into the pan. It may seem like there isn't enough dough at first, but keep pressing it will be plenty. Use a spatula to press down and remove any fingerprints.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, prep the filling.
- Combine the apple sauce, arrowroot powder, coconut sugar, apple pie spice and salt.
- Very thinly slice the apples or use a mandoline to get thin strips.
- Add to the bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
- When the crust is done baking, let it cool for 5-10 minutes.
- Add the filling on top, spreading evenly.
- Combine all ingredients for the crumble in a bowl.
- Sprinkle on top of the filling after you add it to the crust.
- Bake for 45 minutes.
- Be sure to let the bars cool completely for slicing.
- They need to set as they cool or else they will fall apart. Ideally let them cool for at least 1 hour, but 30 minutes does the trick.
- Slice into 16 squares and enjoy! I like to drizzle on a little glaze using just powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. But they are delicious as is or with ice cream.
