Ingredients

1/2 cup / 120g Smooth Peanut Butter, no added sugar


1 Banana, riper the better


6 Medjool Dates, pipped


Berry Centre -


2 1/2 cups / 400g Strawberries and Raspberries - fresh or frozen


40g Goji Berries


4 tbsp Chia Seeds


1 tsp Vanilla Extract


2 tbsp Maple Syrup


Crumble topping -


1 cup / 100g Almond flour


3/4 cup / 100g Coconut flour


3/4 cup / 100g Coconut Sugar


1 tsp Cinnamon or Cardamon


1/2 cup / 170g Maple syrup


1/2 cup / 110g Coconut oil - melted


Method

Preheat the oven to 180’C

Prepare the base by placing all the ingredients in a food processor and pulse until its combined then transfer to a glass or ceramic oven dish lined with parchment paper.

Push the mix down with the back of a spoon to make an even base layer.

To make the berry centre add the berries into a medium sauce pan with a splash of water and gently soften over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Then take off the heat and add the rest of the ingredients and stir for a few minutes until it starts to thicken.

When cooled pour over the base.

Prepare the crumble by mixing together all the ingredients in a large bowl and then cover the berry layer.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the centre has firmed up and the crumble has reached a golden-brown colour.

I suggest serving it warm with a dollop of coconut yoghurt or cream, curled up with a cozy blanket!

These can be kept in the fridge for up to 1 week.
