Foodie Friday is back. My apologies for missing last week, I have been busy lately but this week I had time to cook. Alright, this recipe is actually one that I got from a friend and it is excellent, not to mention easy to make.

Ingredients:

Bars:

  • 2 ½ C. Flour
  • ¾ C. Sugar
  • ½ Tsp. Salt
  • 1 C. Coconut Oil -Softened
  • 16 Oz. Raspberry Preserves

Glaze:

  • ½ C. Powdered Sugar
  • 2 Tbs. Almond Milk

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 300℉. Line a 9×13 baking pan with parchment paper. Leave some excess on the sides for easier removal.
  2. Combine flour, sugar, and salt in a large bowl with the soften coconut oil. Mix until well combined, it will be crumbly. Set aside ½ C. This is your topping.
  3. Press the mix evenly into the prepared pan using a spatula. If the mix is sticking to the spatula, dust lightly with additional flour. Bake for 15 minutes.
  4. Remove from oven and turn the temperature up to 350℉.
  5. Spread the raspberry preserves evenly over the warm crust. Sprinkle on remaining flour mix as a topping.
  6. Bake for 40 minutes. Raspberry filling should be bubbling along the edges.
  7. Allow to cool for 20 minutes on the counter before cooling in the fridge for an additional two hours.
  8. To make the glaze, combine powdered sugar and almond milk into a small bowl, whisk into glaze.
  9. Drizzle bars with glaze, cut and serve.img_2411
