2cupsof your favorite granola
2ripe bananasfrozen
3/4-1cupO Organics™ frozen wild blueberries or fresh berries
1/4cupO Organics coconut creamthe full-fat cream from a can of coconut milk
1/2cupraw cashewssoaked overnight
1tablespoonfresh lemon juice
Instructions
Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper. Sprinkle granola evenly on the bottom of the pan, so it covers the bottom.
Drain cashews first, then add the soft cashews to a food processor or high-powered blender, along with the coconut cream, blending until smooth. Scrape down the sides of the processor as you go, and pulse until the mixture is smooth.
Add bananas, and pulse until the mixture has an ice cream-like consistency. Add frozen blueberries and lemon juice, pulsing until everything is incorporated. The mixture can be as chunky or smooth as you like.
Scoop mixture on top of granola (it will be thick!), and carefully smooth the fruit mixture evenly over granola. Top with more blueberries and toasted coconut.
Freeze for 1 hour. Slice into bars. Store bars in the freezer. Remove to let thaw slightly before eating.
