- Preheat oven to 350 and set aside 8×8 baking dish, or round dish. Line with parchment paper or grease with coconut oil.
- Mix oats, almond flour, salt and cinnamon. Add in coconut oil and honey and stir. If mixture still seems a bit dry, add 1 tablespoon of water. Mix with your hands to make sure the honey and oil really mix well!
- Pour ¾ of the oat mixture into your pan and press down to form the base/crust. (Tip: wet your hands and press down to make everything compact). Place in oven for 9 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare your fruit: rinse your berries, add a squeeze of fresh orange (any citrus would work), and some cinnamon. Also, optional to add some coconut shreds to the remaining oat mixture.
- When the crust is done, remove from oven and let sit for 2 minutes to form. Then, top with fruit mixture. Sprinkle remaining oat mixture on top of fruit. Bake for 30 – 35 minutes, depending how crispy you like the crust.
Store these squares in the fridge for about 5 days or freezer for about 3 months.
