Ingredients

Crumb crust and topping

  • 1 1/2 cups Bob's Red Mill gluten free oats
  • 1/2 cup cassava flour
  • 1 cup Bob's Red Mill tapioca flour
  • 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 1 tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup organic coconut sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. sea salt
  • 3/4 cup organic, grass-fed butter cold

Peach filling

  • 12 medium peaches, washed peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup organic coconut sugar
  • 3 T. Bob's Red Mill tapioca flour

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350° F. Butter a 9x13" pan and set it aside.
  • Place your oats, cassava flour, tapioca flour, maple syrup, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and coconut sugar in a food processor. Pulse until combined.
  • Cut up the cold butter into tablespoon size pieces. Place the butter pieces in the food processor and pulse until the mixture turns into a crumble.
  • Spoon out enough crumble mixture to cover the bottom of the 9x13" pan (about 1/2 of the crumble mixture). Pat the crumble mixture into a crust in the 9x13" pan. Set the rest of the crumble mixture aside.
  • Place the peaches and coconut sugar for the filling mixture into a large saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Once the peach mixture is simmering, turn the heat down to low and simmer for 8 minutes. Mash the peaches while they are simmering.
  • After the peach mixture has simmered for 8 minutes, add the tapioca flour. Stir in the flour and simmer for 1-2 more minutes, stirring constantly.
  • Pour the peach filling onto the crust in the 9x13" pan. Spread the remaining crumble evenly over the peach filling.
  • Bake for 35-40 minutes. Cool completely before cutting and serving. Store these bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
