When I was working at a coffee shop many years ago, the baker would often make 7-layer bars to sell, and I’ve had it in the back of my mind for a long time to recreate them “healthier” and vegan. Today is that day, friends. Let’s bake! The base for this decadent 10-ingredient dessert is an almond-oat crust naturally sweetened with dates and maple syrup that originated from our Creamy Vegan Lemon Bars! The result is a crispy, salty, slightly sweet crust that makes the perfect foundation for these ooey, gooey bars. Now that you have one layer down, there are still six layers to go: Date CaramelPecansPeanut ButterCoconut ButterCoconut Flakes& Chocolate Chips Total swoon! After a short bake in the oven, your bars are ready to devour (the best part). We hope you LOVE these bars! They’re: CrunchyGooeySalty-sweetDecadentRichEasy to make& Uber delicious These would make the perfect dessert for a party, a shower, or a dinner party. They are also great to make and have around the house for something sweet. Although watch out! It’s hard to have just one. ;) For more desserts, check out our Peanut Butter Fudge, Easy Vegan Fudge, Vegan Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls, Peanut Butter & Jelly Snack Bars, Creamy Vegan Lemon Bars, and Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble Bars!
