SNACK - Strawberry Jam Crumble Slices (Makes 12)
2 mugs oat flour
1 mug oats
3 tbsp almond butter: http://amzn.to/20EtGPO
2 tbsp coconut oil: http://amzn.to/1K9tXB2
3 tbsp maple syrup: http://amzn.to/1Qb2RBR
Splash oat/almond milk: http://amzn.to/25Ms7oi
2 tsp cinnamon:
2 mugs strawberries
2 tbsp coconut sugar: http://amzn.to/25MsaR0
2 tbsp chia seeds: http://amzn.to/25MscrW
1/2 mug almonds, blitzed: http://amzn.to/25aNrU9
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Grease a cheesecake tin with coconut oil, add in the mix but reserve around 1/2 mug for the topping. Press down evenly and place in the oven on 180 degrees celcius for 20 mins whilst you make the jam; Add strawberries to a medium saucepan on a low heat, then add coconut sugar with 2 tbsp hot water and stir well. After 5 mins, mash until smooth and then add in the chia seeds and let it simmer for 15 mins. It thickens as the chia soaks up the liquid. You can also leave this to cool, store it in a jar in the fridge and use it as jam for toast, scones etc. Remove base from the oven and pour over the jam, smooth and crumble on remaining oaty topping and almonds. Rough the topping with a teaspoon so some of the strawberry comes through and then place it back in the oven for around 30 minutes still on 180 degrees. Remove, leave to cool and then slice into 12 squares. Served chilled is best, store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
