Ingredients
Gluten-Free Pastry Base
- 150 g almond meal/flour
- 50 g butter melted
- 2 tbsp granulated sweetener, of choice or more to your taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 eggs - medium medium
Sugar-Free Chia Jam
- 125 g berries fresh or frozen
- 5 tbsp chia seeds
- 2 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice or more to your taste
- 80 ml water
Sugar-Free Coconut Topping
- 200 g desiccated/shredded coconut unsweetened
- 2 tbsp granulated sweetener of choice or more to your taste
- 4 tbsp coconut oil melted (see recipe notes)
Instructions
I would suggest making the sugar-free chia jam the night before, or at the beginning of this recipe, so it has time to swell and thicken.
Gluten-Free Pastry Base
- Mix all the ingredients together. Press into a square baking dish (20x20cm, 8x8inch) that has been lined with baking parchment.
- Bake at 180C/350F for 10 minutes, or until golden. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
Sugar-Free Chia Jam
- Place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well. Allow to set for 20-30 minutes. Chia seems to vary considerably so it may take a little longer to set, or may require an extra tablespoon of chia seeds.
- Gently spread the sugar-free chia jam over the cooled cooked base. Place in the fridge to set further.
Sugar-Free Coconut Topping
- Mix the coconut, sweetener and melted coconut oil together in a bowl. NOTE: Depending on how much moisture is in your shredded/desiccated coconut, you may require an extra tablespoon of coconut oil to ensure the coconut layer sets. To test, squeeze a little handful together. It just needs to hold together for a second, it will set hard in the fridge. But if it is completely crumbly, add extra coconut oil which is the binding agent.
- Spread gently the coconut layer on top of the chia jam layer. Place in the fridge to set completely.
Notes
- Store in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- May be frozen as individual squares in an airtight container which has been lined with baking paper.
