Description
Seven Layer Bars (Vegan + Gluten-Free Friendly) – The most decadent and delicious dessert – you won’t even be able to tell they are dairy-free/vegan!
Ingredients
Scale
Crust:
- 1 1/4 cup crushed graham crackers, gluten-free
- 1/2 cup vegan butter, melted (measure solid, not melted)
Topping:
- 11.25oz can dairy-free sweetened condensed coconut milk
- 3/4 cup dairy-free chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup crushed pistachios, shelled
- 1/2 cup crushed walnuts
- 1/3 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Cut a piece of parchment that will fit across your pan with parts overhanging on each side – these will allow you to pop out the bars after they have cooled.
- Combine crushed graham crackers and melted vegan butter in a small bowl.
- Pour into 8×8 or 9×9 pan (with parchment) and press firmly into the bottom, ensuring it covers the entire pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes and let cool. I recommend placing in the fridge for 10 minutes so it cools faster.
- Layer coconut flakes, chocolate chips and pistachios on top, leaving a small amount of each item to sprinkle on the top later.
- Pour dairy-free sweetened condensed milk on top, spreading it to make sure it covers everything evenly, and then sprinkle your leftover ingredients on top of that.
- Bake at 350 degrees F. for 25-30 minutes.
- Let cool and then place in fridge to set, preferably overnight.
Notes
- Dairy-Free Sweetened Condensed Coconut Milk: here what I used in this recipe.
- Graham Crackers: If you aren’t gluten-free, regular graham crackers work too!
- Crust: If after you mix up the crushed graham cracker and the melted vegan butter it feels too wet, just crush up another graham cracker and add it in.
