The Most Beautiful Bars
These might be the most beautiful bars I ever set eyes on. Anyone else out there prefer their desserts not so sweet? These bars are perfectly tart and a little bit sweet, meaning you can really taste ALL THE FLAVORS in every single bite. So many times, desserts are wayyyyy over done with too much sugar. Once you hit a certain point with sugar, it doesn’t even taste good anymore IMO. This recipe is wholesome and healthy and legit the perfect fruity treat! We really hope you guys make this recipe and LOVE it. It really is the perfect treat: it’s great for those who are gluten free or who really like fruity desserts! Oh, and if you’re feeling sassy, you can totally eat a bar for breakfast, too. They are THAT healthy.Crumble Crust
This crumble crust is made with a cashew and oat base, and sweetened with:- coconut oil
- maple syrup
- vanilla almond milk
- a little vanilla extract
Tripe Berry Filling
The filling is a mixture of three kinds of berries (strawberries, blueberries and raspberries!), honey, and a splash of orange juice. When you mix it all together into one recipe…it’s HEAVEN in bar form. And it’s easy to make: You’ll start by placing all ingredients for the berry filling (except for the tapioca flour) into a medium sauce pan. Turn the stovetop heat to high, and bring filling to a boil, making sure to stir often. Once boiling, turn the heat down to low, and let simmer for 10-15 minutes. Make sure to continue stirring during this time. Finally, add tapioca flour to the berry mixture, and let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes, until the filling has thickened.Toppings for Crumble Bars
We suggest topping these bars with coconut whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. YUM YUM YUM. What will you be topping your triple berry crumble bars with?!More Dessert Bars

- First, preheat oven to 350ºF and spray an 8×8-inch pan with coconut oil cooking spray and set aside.
- Next, mix all crust/crumble ingredients together in a medium/large mixing bowl.
- Then, take 2/3 of the mixture and press it evenly onto the bottom of the oiled 8×8 pan. Set the rest of the crust/crumble mixture aside (this is what you will use for the crumble topping).

- Add tapioca flour to the berry mixture and let simmer for another 5-10 minutes, until thickened. Stir often.
- Once the berry filling has thickened, pour on top of the crust.
- Spread the rest of the crumble mixture over the top of the berry filling and then bake for another 10 minutes at 350ºF.
- Let cool for 20 minutes before placing into the fridge for at least 2 hours to let the filling set. Slice and enjoy!
YUM! It looks amazing!
Can I use anything other than the Cashew meal? We have a cashew allergy! Thanks!
Actually, anything other than a nut flour? !
I was going to suggest Almond Meal, are you able to use this? The crust is really meant to be a nut based crust! If you can’t have either of those- you may want to find a different recipe 🙁
These bars are AMAZING! I ate them warm with a little bit of whipped cream on top and it tastes just like pie! Yum! ?
These Triple Berry Bars looks absolutely AMAZING! Can’t wait to make them! I’m on the lookout for yummy but healthy treats and this looks just the thing! Thanks you the recipe – I love you recipes, and your photos are scrumptious!
Aww thanks! These bars are absolutely DELISH.
These bars were at a4th of July party and i almost ran away with the whole tray!!! Do you think I could replace the oats with coconut flakes?…I’m trying to make it a bit more low carb for a diabetic friend
LOL. If you are trying to use no grains…check out Davida’s similar recipe (it’s what I based mine off of): http://www.thehealthymaven.com/2015/06/blueberry-hazelnut-crumb-bars.html She used hazelnuts, but you can pretty much use any nut!
The recipe looks very delicious, I hope I can make it perfectly.
Lee, these look delicious! I love crumble bars and berries – such a perfect combo. Nice to say hi from one Minneapolis foodie to another, too. 🙂
WOOOO MINNEAPOLIS!!!
I am sooo making these for the 4th! Great idea. I loved Almond Breeze. I may even test it out sooner 🙂
YES to all of the above!
OMG these look fabulous!
berry crumble is by far my favorite dessert! These bars look incredible! Love that their not overly sweet!
ME TOO! They are like heaven in bar form…seriously!
I definitely love fruits in a dessert! These look so beautiful, I agree!
I love how dense the base looks!
I wish I had an “almond milk fairy”! 😉 These bars look insanely good. I might try them with almond flour since that’s what I have on hand!
These look fantastic! Do you think almond meal would work in place of cashew meal? I have a ton of it and this looks like the prefect way to use it up 🙂
Absolutely! They work pretty much interchangeably!
I’ve never understood how people can not like dessert, but I guess they just leave a little more for me 😀 And I’d be happy to have MORE of these, because they look freaking fantastic, Lee!
Omg you’re dating a guy who doesn’t like dessert?! That’s crazy to hear, but fruity pies are definitely winners! So are these bars. AMAZINGGGG.
