3/4 cup of Madhava coconut sugar (buy here)

1 tsp Bob's Red Mill tapioca flour (buy here)

Ingredients for the topping:

2 8oz packages of Kite Hill plain cream cheese (buy here)

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl add all dry ingredients for the crust and mix until well combined. Add in melted coconut oil and mix until a crumbly dough forms.

  2. Grease the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan and press dough evenly until the entire surface is covered. Bake at 350˚F for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to completely cool.

  3. For the topping whip together cream cheese and full fat coconut milk together with a hand mixer. Add in pure maple syrup and whip until smooth and creamy. You may have to allow the mixture to get to room temp to be "whippable" and lump free.

  4. Evenly distribute the whipped topping onto the completely cooled crust. Place in fridge for 2 hours to set.

  5. Top with fresh berries before serving.
