- 2 tablespoons coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
For the Filling:
- 1 cup pitted dried dates
- 1 cup golden raisins or raisins
- 3.5 ounces blueberry jam
- 1/2 lime, zested
For the Topping:
- 1 cup coconut shreds
- 1/2 cup almond meal

Preparation
To Make the Base:
- Combine the almonds meal and coconut flour in a food processor then add the oil and sweetener. Blend them until they're combined and it gets sticky.
- Crumble the mix into the bottom of a baking dish, then press it down to create the base layer.
To Make the Filling:
- Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor then blend them until you get a smooth thick jammy consistency. Spread the mix evenly over the base.
To Make the Topping:
- Combine the coconut and almond meal in a large mixing bowl and then, add the oil and maple syrup and mix it through with your fingertips until it is evenly distributed and resembles coarse bread crumbs.
- Alternately just throw the lot into your food processor and pulse until it's combined and evenly distributed and looks crumbly. Don't overdo it or it will turn into dough.
- Lightly sprinkle this onto the fruit filling then bake it for 20-25 minutes ensuring that the top doesn't burn. Let cool completely before slicing.
