Ingredients
 

Sugar Cookie Base:

  • 1 ¼ cup almond flour, spooned and level
  • ½ cup oat flour, homemade in the blender
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • ¼ cup real maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter or coconut oil, softened

Strawberry Filling:

  • 4 cups fresh strawberries, ~1.5 lbs, destemmed & cut up into quarters
  • 2 Tbsp coconut sugar
  • 1 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 Tbsp tapioca starch or arrowroot starch

Crumble Topping:

  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • ¼ cup almond flour, spoon and leveled
  • ¼ cup walnuts or pecans, roughly chopped
  • ⅓ cup pure maple syrup
  • 2 Tbsp melted coconut oil

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease and line an 8x8’ tin with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl combine the sugar cookie base dry ingredients. Then use your hands to make sure all the butter is mixed into the dough. Evenly press into the greased tin.
  • Bake the base for 8 - 10 minutes then remove it from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in another mixing bowl, combines all the strawberry filling ingredients. Make sure all the strawberries are coated and then pour on top of the sugar cookie base.
  • In another mixing bowl, combine all the crumble topping ingredients. Evenly sprinkle on top of the strawberry filling.
  • Bake 35 - 40 minutes or until filling bubbling and crumble topping golden brown.
  • Enjoy at room temperature, from the fridge, or warm with vanilla ice cream!

Notes

MAKE IS VEGAN: Substitute the unsalted butter with coconut oil or vegan butter.
TO STORE: in an airtight container or in the original baking dish covered with aluminum foil in the fridge for 3 - 4 days. 
HOW TO ENJOY: I recommend enjoying cool at room temperature or from the fridge. If you prefer a warm dessert, simply reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5 - 10 minutes until warm.
