Are blueberry crumb bars healthful?

The classic blueberry crumble bar is made from sugar granulated, old-fashioned whole wheat flour and oats. Our blueberry crumble bars that are paleo are made from healthy ingredients that aren’t just gluten-free, but also free of refined sugar, grains dairy-free, vegan and dairy-free.

Ingredients You require

for paleo and gluten-free crumb mix:

• The Almond Flour could make use of fine blanched almonds or almond meal. The almond flour can be described as the primary almond flour that makes up the bulk. Make sure to measure it correctly using a spoon and measure using the level method.
• Almonds and coconut piecesClassic fruit bars contain the rolled oats as their crumble topping, however because we want to avoid the grain and gluten-free, we make use of a mixture of coconut flakes and nuts to give them that oatmeal-like texture. It is possible to chop them up or grind them several occasions in your food processor until they resemble oatmeal. Our favorites come made by Bob’s Red Mill. If you’re not a grain-free eater then feel free to make use of gluten-free old-fashioned Oats rolled instead.
• Coconut sugar and maple syrup Wee make use of a mixture of both these refined sugars to create even more tasty and delicious. It is also possible to substitute Lakanto golden monk fruit , and maple syrup made without sugar in order to create keto friendly versions. You can also substitute alternatively, any liquid sugar or brown sugar substitute in case you don’t have them in your pantry.
• Baking powderThe leftner that we make to make the crust to rise slightly
• SaltTo help balance the sweetness, and enhance the flavor
• 
  Lemon zest
  
• Butter that is vegan or coconut oil that has been softened (you like the same texture and texture as softened butter, use refined butter if you like it without coconut flavor) It is also possible to substitute ghee or regular unsalted butter, if you’re not dairy-free.

for the delicious blueberry pie filling that is gooey and sweet:

• Blueberries that are fresh: If I’m not able to find fresh blueberries in my fridge, I’ve frequently used frozen blueberries, and they’ve worked well. The frozen berries are a great alternative to pie fillings when fresh blueberries aren’t in season . be sure to let them thaw before you use your blueberries that you’ve frozen and then dry them.
• Maple syrupTo provide sweetness. You can substitute it with coconut sugar and Lakanto the Monk Fruit sweetener low-carb blueberry bars.
• Arrowroot and tapioca starch to make the filling more dense. It is possible to substitute flaxseed meal or xanthan gum to make keto blueberry slices.
• Citrus juice as well as zest
