Metis® Fruit and Maple Crumble Bars

Step 1

Preheat oven to 180C/350F.

Step 2

Carefully remove the stones from the Metis® and place in a saucepan with the remaining jam ingredients. Bring to a gentle simmer and leave for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. The fruit should have broken down and the jam thickened.

Step 3

Place the oats, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and flour in a food processor. Blitz for about 10 seconds until it resembles an oat flour.

Step 4

Add the vegan butter and blitz again until the mixture is combined and starting to clump together.

Step 5

Grease and line an 8x8 inch baking tin. Place 2/3 of the crumble mixture in, using the back of a metal spoon to create an even layer. Place in the oven for 10-12 minutes.Remove from the oven and once the jam is ready, pour on top. Then place the remaining crumble mixture on top, using your fingers.

Step 6

Place back into the oven for 25-35 minutes until the topping is golden brown.

Step 7

Leave to cool completely then place in the fridge for a couple of hours. Place onto a chopping board and cut into squares, I made 16.

Step 8

Will keep in the fridge for 2-3 days.
