Recipe Information
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
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Add the melted coconut oil, maple syrup, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, mixing until well combined and crumbly in texture.
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.
In another bowl, mix the berries with the cornstarch, lemon juice, and granulated sugar until the berries are well coated.
Spread the berry mixture evenly over the crust in the pan.
Sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the berry layer for the topping.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the crumble topping is golden brown and the berries are bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack to set.
Once cooled, use the parchment overhang to lift the bars out of the pan and onto a cutting board. Cut into 12 bars.
Serve and enjoy the vegan berry crumble bars as a sweet treat or dessert!
