Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 0.75 cup coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups mixed berries (e.g., blueberries, raspberries, strawberries), fresh or frozen
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, mixing until well combined and crumbly in texture.
Step 4
Take about two-thirds of the crumb mixture and press it firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to create an even crust layer.
Step 5
In another bowl, mix the berries with the cornstarch, lemon juice, and granulated sugar until the berries are well coated.
Step 6
Spread the berry mixture evenly over the crust in the pan.
Step 7
Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the berry layer for the topping.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the berries are bubbling.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack to set.
Step 10
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Cut into 12 bars.
Step 11
Serve and enjoy the vegan berry crumble bars as a sweet treat or dessert!
