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
