Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ cups almond flour
  • ¼ cup coconut oil melted
  • 2 tablespoons honey or maple syrup for crust
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt
  • ½ cup honey or maple syrup for filling adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine almond flour, melted coconut oil, 2 tablespoons of honey or maple syrup, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until crumbly.
  3. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form the crust. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove and let cool.
  4. In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add Greek yogurt, ½ cup of honey or maple syrup, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Mix until creamy.
  5. In a separate bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with cornstarch and lemon juice. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Spread the cream cheese and strawberry mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until the center is set.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing into bars.
