Ingredients
  

Strawberry Filling
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, chopped in half Chopping helps strawberries soften and release juice evenly.
  • 1 Tbsp sugar-free sweetener of choice Preferably sugar-free brown sugar.
  • 2 tsp tapioca flour Thickens the filling.
  • 1 pinch sea salt Enhances strawberry flavor.
Crust and Topping
  • 2 cups superfine almond flour Provides structure and crumbly texture.
  • 6 Tbsp unsalted butter or coconut oil, melted Both can be used in this recipe.
  • 3 Tbsp sugar-free sweetener of choice Use a brown sugar-style for a caramelized flavor.
  • 1 pinch sea salt Helps balance the sweetness.

Method
 

Preparation of Strawberry Filling
  1. Add the chopped strawberries to a bowl and sprinkle with 1 Tbsp sugar-free sweetener, tapioca flour, and a pinch of sea salt. Toss until evenly coated and set aside to release juices.
Making the Crumble Mixture
  1. In a second bowl, combine almond flour, 3 Tbsp sugar-free sweetener, and a pinch of sea salt. Pour in melted butter or coconut oil and mix until the texture resembles damp sand.
Forming the Base
  1. Press a portion of the almond flour mixture firmly into the bottom of the baking dish to create an even layer.
Adding Strawberry Layer
  1. Spoon the strawberry mixture over the base, spreading it evenly and including any juices for a glossy finish.
Finishing with Crumb Topping
  1. Sprinkle the remaining almond flour mixture over the strawberries, keeping it crumbly to allow steam to escape.
Baking
  1. Bake until the top is lightly golden and the strawberry layer is bubbling.
Cooling
  1. Let the bars cool in the pan until the filling is set and the base feels firm. Wait until fully cooled to slice for clean cuts.

Notes

Serve chilled for the best texture. Bars can improve in flavor and texture when made ahead of time.
