For the dough
- 110g ground oats
- 50g ground almonds
- 1/4 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1 medium egg
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 2 tbsp coconut oil/butter/dairy-free butter
- raspberry jam or homemade chia jam (recipe below)
Raspberry chia jam
- 70g raspberries frozen or fresh
- 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 1/2 tbsp chia seeds
To make the dough
Mix the egg, maple syrup and coconut oil in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the oat flour, ground almonds, cinnamon, baking powder and salt.
Pour in the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and mix to form a soft dough.
Divide the dough in 2 and roll out between two sheets of parchment paper into a rectangle (about 1/4″ thickness) and cut off any ragged edges.
Spread the raspberry jam (recipe below) or shop bought jam along the centre of each rectangle.
Fold one side of the dough on top of the jam and press on it very gently, then fold the other side to enclose.
Gently roll the log so the seam is on the bottom, then slice into 3 bars (you should have 6 bars in total)
You can bake them in an air-fryer at 180C for 10-12 minutes.
Alternatively you can bake them in a preheated oven at 180C/160C fan/350F for 20-25 minutes until the bars are golden brown.Leave to cool and enjoy!
To make the chia jam filling
Add the raspberries to a small saucepan along with the maple syrup and lemon juice.
Gently cook over a low/medium heat while mashing the raspberries with a wooden spoon.
Once the raspberries are all mashed up, take off the heat and fold in the chia seeds. Leave to cool completely. The jam will set as it cools.
