Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 3/4 cup coconut sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup coconut oil
  • 1/4 cup applesauce (unsweetened )
  • 1/8 cup maple syrup
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup Gluten Free Baking Flour
  • 5 ounces Greek cream cheese
  • 2-3 tsp liquid stevia
  • 1/3 cup sugar free strawberry preserves

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Prepare a square 8-inch by 8-inch baking dish with parchment paper placing it horizontal & vertical hanging over the sides of the dish for easy removal.
  • Using a hand mixer, beat the eggs whites together in a large bowl until fluffy peaked. Then add the the sugar, vanilla, applesauce, maple syrup and coconut oil to the eggs and beat until combined.
  • To the batter, fold in the salt and flour. Do not over combine. Transfer the batter to the prepared baking dish and smooth with a spatula or back of a spoon.
  • Place in the oven and bake at 350 F for 30 minutes until the edges are brown.
  • While the crust is baking, add the cream cheese and stevia to a bowl and whisk together very well.
  • After you remove the crust from the oven, spread the cream cheese evenly over it. It should spread easily as the crust is warm.
  • Next add the strawberry preserves to the top, placing random dollops of it all over. Then using a toothpick swirl the preserves into the cream cheese.
  • Place in the freezer to set 3-6 hours, overnight is best. When you're ready to eat, simply lift the parchment paper up to remove the bars from the dish and slice into 12 squares.
