  • 1/2 cup sliced almonds
  • 3 scoops gluten free plant based protein powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 tbsp flax seed meal
  • 6 tbsp water
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1 1/2 cups unsweetened plant based milk
  • 1 cup creamy natural peanut or almond butter

Crumble

  • 1/2 cup super fine almond flour
  • 1/2 cup gluten free rolled oats
  • 1 tbsp pure maple syrup
  • 1 tbsp melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375℉ and grease a square pan with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Combine the flax seed meal and water in a small bowl and stir together. Let sit for 15 minutes.
  • While you're waiting, combine the remaining oat base ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl and mix well.
  • Once the flax mixture has sat for long enough, add it to the oat base and mix well.
  • Transfer the oat base to the pan and ensure it's spread evenly.
  • Combine the berry layer ingredients in a small pot on the stove set to medium heat. Cook until the berries are no longer frozen and mixture is more sticky.
  • Combine the ingredients for the crumble mixture in a small mixing bowl and mix with a fork.
  • Layer the berry mixture on top of the oat base - spreading it evenly.
  • Sprinkle the crumble over the top.
  • Bake in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until crumble is golden brown.
