Ingredients

1. 2 cups Almond flour
2. ¼ cup Coconut flour
3. ½ cup Erythritol or preferred low-carb sweetener
4. 1 teaspoon Baking powder
5. ¼ teaspoon Salt
6. ½ cup Unsweetened almond milk
7. ⅓ cup Coconut oil, melted
8. 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
9. 2 cups Fresh blueberries
10. 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
11. Zest from 1 lemon
12. ¼ cup Sugar-free maple syrup or preferred low-carb syrup
13. 2 tablespoons Chia seeds

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or line a baking pan with parchment paper, ensuring that it overhangs the sides for easy removal.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the almond flour, coconut flour, erythritol (or preferred low-carb sweetener), baking powder, and salt. Mix well to ensure even distribution of ingredients.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the unsweetened almond milk, melted coconut oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.
5. Press two-thirds of the dough evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan, forming the base layer.
6. In a small saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, lemon juice, lemon zest, and sugar-free maple syrup (or preferred low-carb syrup). Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries soften and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes. Mash the blueberries slightly with the back of a spoon to break them down.
7. Add the chia seeds to the blueberry mixture and stir well. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until it thickens slightly.
8. Spread the blueberry mixture evenly over the almond flour base in the baking pan.
9. Crumble the remaining one-third of the almond flour dough over the top of the blueberry layer, creating a crumbly topping.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
11. Remove from the oven and allow the Low-carb Blueberry Square Bars to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares.
12. Once cooled, lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang and transfer them to a cutting board. Slice into squares and serve.
13. Enjoy your homemade Low-carb Blueberry Square Bars as a nutritious and delicious snack or dessert!
