Servings 9
Ingredients
For the crumble
- 1 dl Coconut flour
- 1 1/2 dl Oats
- 2 1/2 dl Coconut oil
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 4-5 drops Stevia vanilla drops (optional)
For the bars
- 1 1/2 dl Apple sauce
- 2 dl Pear purée, about 1 1/2-2 medium ripe pears (or more apple sauce)
- 2 dl Nut butter (I used almond)
- 8 drops Stevia vanilla drops (or 1- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract)
- 2 dl Oat flour
- 2 dl Oats
- 1/2-1 dl Stevia granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1/2 tsp Baking soda
- 1 tsp Cinnamon
- 1 large Pear finely diced (about pinky finger nail size)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 175 degrees Celsius.
- Line a 20*18 baking pan with parchment paper.
- Combine the ingredients for the crumble and set aside.
- Add two pears to a high speed blender and mix until you have a smooth purée. Don't use too ripe pears, then the bars will become too wet, they should be sweet and juicy but not too ripe. Or skip this step and use more apple sauce, but that will result in bars tasting less like pears.
- Combine the wet ingredients in a bowl (first four ingredients).
- Next combine the rest of the ingredients (except for the pears) in a separate bowl.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until fully combined.
- Fold in the diced pear gently until fully incorporated.
- Add the batter to the lined baking pan and add the crumble on top.
- Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes.
- Take out of the oven and let them cool completely before cutting them.
