This Healthy Vegan Plum Slice recipe is a very easy, very healthy and very delicious sweet treat! I love making these plum slices. They are so simple and they are a great way to use up some of the annual plum harvest. They keep for up to 5 days if they are refrigerated in an airtight container too.
I usually make the plum filling a day or two in advance and keep it cool in the refrigerator until I am ready to use it. The base is made from rolled oats, almond meal, maple syrup, coconut oil, salt and cinnamon which I top with the plum filling. I top the slices with oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and coconut oil and bake in the oven. There you have it! Simple healthy plum slices!
To make Healthy Plum Slices, you will need the following ingredients:
In a medium saucepan, over medium heat, bring the plums and maple syrup to a boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes. Remove from the heat when the plums are soft and allow to cool. Refrigerate until you are ready to use the filling.
Turn on the oven and preheat to 355 ˚F. Lightly grease and line an 8 inch x 8 inch cake pan.
Place the oats, almond meal, maple syrup, coconut oil, salt and cinnamon in a food processor. Process until the ingredients are fully combined and finely chopped.
Evenly press the base into the baking pan. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Allow to cool.
Spread plum filling evenly over the cooled base.
Mix the oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, flax seeds and coconut oil together in a bowl.
Sprinkle the oat and nut mixture over plum filling and press it in lightly.
Bake in the oven for 20 minutes until topping is golden and toasted.
Allow to cool completely.
Remove from pan and cut into bars or squares. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
