  • 1/4 cup olive or coconut oil

Topping

  • 1/3 cup maple syrup
  • 2 tbsp melted coconut oil

Instructions

:
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. 
  2. Combine all the base ingredients until dough forms.
  3. Press into a lined 8x8 baking dish or a loaf pan for thicker bars.
  4. Bake for 14-18 mins (oven time will vary depending on pan size) until golden around the edges. Let cool.
