Method:

Filling

Place plums and 2 tablespoons maple syrup into a saucepan and place over a medium heat. Bring mixture to the boil and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until plums are soft, pulpy and firm. Cool. Place in refrigerator until required. (This can be made the day or night ahead of making).

Base

Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease and line a 20cm x 20cm cake pan with baking paper. To make the base place oats, almond meal, maple syrup, coconut oil, salt and cinnamon into a food processor and process until well combined and finely chopped. Press evenly over base of prepared cake pan. Bake for 15 minutes. Cool.

Topping

Spread plum mixture over cold base. For topping, combine oats, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds and coconut oil in a bowl. Stir until combined. Sprinkle mixture over plums, pressing lightly. Bake for 20 minutes or until topping is light golden. Cool in pan. Remove from pan and cut into bars or squares. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

Healthy plum slice

It is a really nice recipe albeit crumbly. I added a little honey on top of the maple syrup as the fruit was really sharp, especially since I added a few blackberries that I found in my garden. I also added some cacao powder to the base. It was lovely and yummy but, as I said, crumbly
