A sweet granola base layered with vanilla yogurt, blackberries, and a drizzle of almond butter - these bars are vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar free, raw and no-bake. A quick, healthy and refreshing treat!
Line a 9x11 or 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper and set aside.
Add all the base ingredients to a food processor and process until a ball forms (about 30-45 seconds).
Press the mixture into the lined baking dish with a spatula or your hands to create the base layer. Place in the freezer while you make the next layer.
Add 1 cup blackberries to a pot with 1 tbsp maple syrup and place over medium-low heat. Mash the blackberries with a spoon until they release most of their juices (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool.
Add the yogurt on top of the base layer and smooth out. Pour the stewed blackberries on top of the yogurt layer and swirl with a spoon until well incorporated (unleash your inner artist!).
Place the dish back in the freezer overnight or for at least 2 hours - until the yogurt layer is hardened.
Remove from freezer, cut into bars (mine were about 4x4), top with fresh blackberries and drizzle with almond butter. Enjoy!
Notes
Feel free to swap vegan yogurt for a non-vegan yogurt.
I have not tried making the base in a blender so I am not sure if it will work, but it might! If you try it, please let me know how it turned out in the comments.
