Redcurrant Quinoa Crumble Bars (gluten-free & vegan)

Redcurrant Quinoa Crumble Bars (gluten-free & vegan)

I’ve been trying to get this recipe to you for one week now, my computer crashed earlier this week and so far we had no luck bringing it back to life. I’m so upset about it, it’s been with me since the beginning of my blog and I’m so attached to it. You will understand if you’re a blogger! So right now I’m working on my husband’s computer while he’s out, but it’s just not the same :(

These scrumptious Redcurrant Quinoa Crumble Bars happened after visiting our friends in their new home in countryside and coming back with a huge bowl of redcurrants from their garden. They are adapted from my Rhubarb Hazelnut Crumb Bars from last Spring that are equally amazing if you have’t tried yet.

In this recipe I’m using quinoa flakes instead of oats and it’s worked magically. I found that I’ve been eating way too many oats and so I’ve moved over to quinoa flakes for a change, I also find that they suit me better. Quinoa flakes are more pricey than oats, but little goes a long way and if you haven’t tried making quinoa flakes porridge yet, you absolutely have to.

These crumble bars are super wholesome, very easy to make and you could happily adapt them to your liking and use any seasonal fruit to fill them with. In fact I’m already planning a savoury version of these! Enjoy the recipe.

Much Love Hxx

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄
