Grain-Free Peach Cookie Bars

Servings: 8
Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups almond flour*
  • 1/2 cup arrowroot flour
  • 1/4–1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 peach, peeled and sliced (the more unripe the peach is, the better)
  • 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter, softened and cut into pieces or coconut oil
  • 1–2 tablespoons coconut milk**
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1- 1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Line an 8 x 8-inch baking dish with parchment paper. This makes it really easy to get the bars out in one piece.

Place all of the dry ingredients into a food processor and combine.

Add in the butter, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon of milk and pulse until a dough forms. The dough should form a ball and be wet. Add more milk if needed.

Press the dough into the baking dish until fully covered, then place the peach slices on top of the dough.

Bake at 350 degrees for 32–35 minutes or until the top is golden.

Let cool and remove the bars from the pan by pulling up on the sides of the parchment paper. Cut into desired size bars.

Store in an airtight container. These are great at room temperature, but, as with all almond flour goodies, I think they are best out of the freezer!!! Let them sit for a minute or two out of freezer to thaw the peach slices.

Quick notes:

*You can grind your own almond flour by placing whole almonds in a blender/food processor and blending until you get a fine meal.

**For the freshest coconut milk, make homemade coconut milk. (See video at this link.)

Softened coconut oil should work in place of the butter for those that are dairy-free.

Author’s Note – The virgin palm oil will give an orange color to the cookies due to the high amount of carotenes.
