Pink, Red and Berries... but without the Berry. Could you ask for anything more delicious? Valentines or not, these dense and delicious bars are good 365 days a year.
Ingredients for Cake:
1
1/4 Cup Almond Milk (We make our own, using Ellie's Best)
3 oz of Butter, melted
1/4 Cup Sweetener of Choice
2 1/2 Cup Almond Flour (sifted)
2 teaspoon Baking Powder
6 Large Eggs at room temperature
1 Packet of Strawberry Pudding Mix by our fave, Simply Delish
5 Drops of OOO All Natural Monk Fruit Vanilla Sweetener ** Vanilla Extract can also be used here
1 Tablespoon Lorann Oils - Strawberry Emulsion
Add Natural Red Food colouring until desired pink is achieved. Always make it darker because as it bakes it lightens in colour.
Ingredients for Crumble:
1 Cup Almond Flour
1/4 Cup Butter, room temperature
1/3 Cup Copped Nuts (We used Slivered almonds, but Pecans work AMAZING too)
2 T Brown Swerve
Add Natural Red Food colouring until desired Red is achieved
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Using a hand mixer, blend all wet ingredients in one bowl and all dry ingredients in another. Combine the two with mixer until smooth. Pour into baking dish (we used 8x8) and cook for about 25 mins (or more), until top is firm.
Meanwhile prepare the crumble by mixing all ingredients together until well combined.
Pull cake out of the oven after about 20 minutes and sprinkle the crumble on top. Return to oven and finish cooking.
Remove from oven, let cool completely. Prepare a packet of Raspberry Jello from Simply Delish and pour over the cooled cake until covered. Place in fridge and let set for about 1/2 hr. Serve.
**Slice up the bar and keep it stored in an air tight container to help retain the moisture.
