Fig Bars

Ingredients

  • 2 2/3 cups oats, fine
  • 2 cups fig paste, instructions below
  • 14 fl oz coconut milk, full fat
  • 14 fl oz coconut cream
  • 4 ounces agave syrup
  • 2 tablespoons vanilla extract
  • Fresh figs, sliced, for topping
  • Dark chocolate, melted, for topping

Cooking Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the fig paste by peeling some of the figs and blending them together.  Add the fine oats to the fig paste to create the dough.  Leave some peeled and sliced figs aside for topping.

Step 2: Melt the coconut cream using a water bath until it has turned into a liquid.  Add the liquid coconut cream, coconut milk, agave syrup, and vanilla extract to a blender.  Blend until the mixture is like a soft cream.

Step 3: In a square cake pan, spread the dough.  Spread the cream evenly on top and arrange the fig slices as desired.  Refrigerate for about 45 minutes.

Step 4: Once the dessert is ready, cut into rectangular pieces.  Drizzle with melted dark chocolate before serving.
