Steps
Sequence Step
1set oven at 400 F
2Grease a 8 by 8 pan
3Bring 1 cup of water to a boil and simmer chopped apples until almost soft. Add dates and simmer another 5-10 minutes until soft. Add lemon juice and blend with an immersion blender.
4In a small bowl mix coconut oil and maple syrup. Combine flours and sea salt in a large bowl. If you don’t have almond flour just use more sorghum flour (Annie used brown rice flour). Add quinoa flakes and stir to combine.
5Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients.
6Press 2/3 of the date square crumble dough into the bottom of the greased 8×8 pan. Spread with the date mixture and then add the remaining crumble dough.
