• 1/4 cup brown rice syrup
• 1/2 cup maple syrup, divided
• 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

1. Place 2 cups of the oats in a food processor and pulse until the oats resemble fine oat bran.
2. Set aside.
3. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
4. In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the reserved oat flour, the remaining 3 cups oats, and the brown rice syrup, 1/4 cup of the maple syrup, olive oil, salt, and vanilla until thoroughly combined, about 3 minutes.
5. Firmly press two-thirds of the dough onto a 9- by 12-inch baking sheet.
6. Bake until light brown, about 15 minutes.
7. While the dough is baking, combine the berries, corn flour, and the remaining 1/4 cup of the maple syrup in a medium-size bowl.
8. Evenly distribute the berry mixture over the baked oat crust.
9. Crumble the remaining one-third of the dough over the berries, pressing it down firmly.
