Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8x8 inch baking dish with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together the almond flour, coconut flour, baking soda, and sea salt.

Step 3

Add in the melted coconut oil, honey, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Press the dough evenly into the prepared baking dish to form the base layer.

Step 5

Bake for 15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Let it cool completely.

Step 6

To make the filling, combine coconut milk, arrowroot powder, and maple syrup in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly until the mixture thickens.

Step 7

Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl, then slowly add a small amount of the hot coconut mixture to temper the eggs, whisking continuously.

Step 8

Return the egg mixture to the saucepan and add the remaining vanilla extract and gelatin powder, whisking until smooth and well combined. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Step 9

Pour the filling over the cooled base layer, spreading it out evenly.

Step 10

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set before slicing into squares and serving.
