Paleo Strawberry Macadamia Bar Ingredients:

Shortbread Layer:

Strawberry Layer:

Crumb Layer:

Optional Glaze:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 F and place parchment paper on a 9 inch pan.
  2. In a bowl, combine almond flour, coconut flour, salt, vanilla extract, honey, and melted butter. Stir until blended. Press 3/4 of the shortbread dough into the pan and bake for 12 minutes or until golden on top and around the edges.
  3. While the shortbread is in the oven, prepare the strawberry mixture. In a saucepan add the strawberries, maple syrup, salt, and tapioca flour. Mix over medium heat until thickened and combined, around 4-6 minutes. Remove from the pan and let cool in the fridge.
  4. After the shortbread is baked, let it cool for 10 minutes. 
  5. Add chopped macadamia nuts to the remaining shortbread dough and stir until thoroughly combined.
  6. Spread the strawberry mixture over the baked shortbread dough. Then, add the shortbread and macadamia batter on top. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until firm in the middle.
  7. Let cool completely before adding the optional white chocolate glaze.
  8. Enjoy!
