Directions

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 18cm x 28cm slab tine with baking paper.
For base, combine all dry ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine. Place maple syrup and coconut oil in a small saucepan and heat until coconut oil is melted and mixture is warm. Add to dry ingredients and mix to combine. Press 2 cups of mixture into base of lined baking tray. Push down firmly so it is really compact (otherwise it will crumble). Place remaining mixture into refrigerator.
Bake base for 10 minutes. Remove from oven.
While base is cooking prepare the filling. Place berries, Nourishing Bubs cubes and vanilla in a saucepan over medium heat with 2 tablespoons water. Bring to the boil then reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for 10-15 minutes or until mixture thickens. Stir occasionally. Remove from heat.
Pour filling mixture over slice base. Using a fork, break apart remaining base/crumble mixture, sprinkle evenly over filling. Bake for 20 minutes or until golden and filling is bubbling. Allow to cool in tin. Remove and cut into 16 rectangles. Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days.
