Step 1

Preheat oven to 350F. Grease or line an 8×8 pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Step 2

Sift coconut flour and almond meal together in a bowl. Add shredded coconut, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon and mix.

Step 3

Blend dried plums and creamy almond butter. I used a Food Processor for this. After blending, Set aside.

Step 4

Whisk the egg, milk, and vanilla together.

Step 5

Add your blended almond butter and prune mix to dry ingredients. Stir gently. Then fold in the egg/milk/vanilla.

Step 6

Mix thoroughly.

Step 7

Press batter into lined or greased 8×8 pan. Once that’s set, make your topping.

Step 8

Blend together 2-3 tbsp coconut or almond milk, 1 tbsp almond butter, and 1/2 cup or less of prunes and a handful of berries (optional for color). Best in food processor to blend ingredients until jam or jelly paste is formed.

Step 9

Spread this over the batter in your 8×8 pan. Sprinkle shredded coconut on top.

Step 10

Bake 350F for 25 minutes. Remove and check progress of batter. If you want these bars to be more sticky and moist, then bake 26-28 minutes and remove. If you’d like them thicker and chewy, bake for 30 minutes.

Step 11

Remove from fridge and let cool. Then place in fridge.

Step 12

Store in fridge for 30 minutes before slicing

Step 13

Keeps best in fridge
