Ingredients
  

For the Crust and Topping:

For the Strawberry Filling:

  • 2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and chopped
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8x8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang on the sides for easy removal.
  • In a large bowl, combine the almond flour, gluten free flour, melted butter, sugar, salt, and vanilla extract. Stir well until the mixture forms a crumbly dough.
  • Reserve 1 cup of the crumble mixture for the topping. Press the remaining mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, creating an even layer.
  • Bake the crust in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, or until it is lightly golden.
  • While the crust is baking, prepare the strawberry filling. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped strawberries, lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch. Stir well to combine.
  • Cook the strawberry mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it starts to bubble and the strawberries break down into a thick, jam-like consistency. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Once the crust is ready, remove it from the oven and spread the strawberry filling over the top. Sprinkle the reserved crumble mixture over the strawberries.
  • Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, until the topping is golden and the strawberry filling is bubbling.
  • Allow the bars to cool completely in the baking dish. Once cooled, use the parchment paper overhang to lift the bars o ut of the dish. Cut into squares.
  • Serve your delicious gluten-free strawberry crumble bars as is, or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Enjoy!
