Almond Lemon Blueberry Pie Bars

  1. Lightly grease an 8x8 inch baking dish, or line with parchment paper. Alternatively, line with foil, but still add a bit of non-stick spray or vegan butter to ease serving.
  2. For the crust, add softened butter and sugar to a mixing bowl and beat until light and fluffy in texture - 1 minute
  3. Add flour and salt with mixer on low and mix until combined - it should be crumbly.
  4. Add almond milk and mix once more - it should form a cohesive dough. If not, add a bit (1-2 tsp) more almond milk.
  5. Transfer dough to prepared 8x8 inch baking dish and dust the surface with flour. Use your hands to press the dough into the dish until flat and uniform.
  6. Chill in the freezer for 15 minutes, then preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  7. Bake crust for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown on edges and light golden brown in the center - you want it fairly well done. Let cool, but leave the oven on.
  8. In the meantime, prepare filling. Add all filling ingredients except almonds to a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook stirring/mashing the berried, for about 6-8 minutes or until the filling is bubbly and resembles pourable blueberry jam.
  9. Remove from heat and pour over the baked crust. Top with slivered almonds and bake for another 24-28 minutes, or until filling is bubbly along the edges and almonds are slightly golden brown.
  10. Let cool completely - about 2-3 hours before serving.
  11. Before serving, prepare glaze by adding organic powdered sugar to a mixing bowl. Slowly whisk as you add in almond milk 1 tbsp at a time until a semi-thick, pourable glaze is formed.
  12. Once bars are cooled, drizzle with glaze, loosen the edges with a knife and slice into 9 even bars. Serve with a spatula. The first bar can be a bit tricky to get out, so be gentle.
  13. Leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for 3-4 days, though best when enjoyed within the first 24 hours.
