Servings: persons

1/2 cup vegan butter softened
1/3 cup coconut sugar
1 1/4 cups unbleached all purpose flour
1 pinch salt
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
4 cups fresh blueberries
1/4 cup coconut sugar
1/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour
1 lemon small, tested + juiced, 2 tbsp juice
1 tablespoon vegan butter cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon chia seeds
1/3 cup slivered almonds
1 cup powdered sugar icing organic
2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

1
Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish, or line with parchment paper. Alternatively, line with foil, but still add a bit of non-stick spray or vegan butter to ease serving.
2
For the crust, add softened butter and sugar to a mixing bowl and beat until light and fluffy in texture - 1 minute
3
Add flour and salt with mixer on low and mix until combined - it should be crumbly.
4
Add almond milk and mix once more - it should form a cohesive dough. If not, add a bit (1-2 tsp) more almond milk.
5
Transfer dough to prepared 8x8 inch baking dish and dust the surface with flour. Use your hands to press the dough into the dish until flat and uniform.
6
Chill in the freezer for 15 minutes, then preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
7
Bake crust for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on edges and light golden brown in the center - you want it fairly well done. Let cool, but leave the oven on.
8
In the meantime, prepare filling. Add all filling ingredients except almonds to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook stirring/mashing the berried, for about 6-8 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and resembles pourable blueberry jam.
9
Remove from heat and pour over the baked crust. Top with slivered almonds and bake for another 24-28 minutes, or until filling is bubbly along the edges and almonds are slightly golden brown.
10
Let cool completely - about 2-3 hours before serving.
11
Before serving, prepare glaze by adding organic powdered sugar to a mixing bowl. Slowly whisk as you add in almond milk 1 tbsp at a time until a semi-thick, pourable glaze is formed.
12
Once bars are cooled, drizzle with glaze, loosen the edges with a knife and slice into 9 even bars. Serve with a spatula. The first bar can be a bit tricky to get out, so be gentle.
13
Leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, though best when enjoyed within the first 24 hours.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Use a neutral oil or a plant-based spread in place of butter for a dairy-free version.
Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Leave out the nuts to make it nut-free, or swap in seeds for a similar crunch.
A good 1:1 gluten-free flour blend works well if you need a gluten-free version.
