Berry Filling
- 3 cups fresh or frozen berries of your choice I used a mix of raspberries, blueberries, and strawberries
- 1/4 cup coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp tapioca starch or arrowroot starch
- 2 tsp lemon juice
Set oven to 375 degrees F and line an 8x8 baking pan with parchment paper so the edges hang off the sides.
Place crust ingredients in a large bowl and mix together until it forms a dough when pinched together.
Press evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
Bake for 10 minutes.
Cool completely.
While the crust is cooling, place the filling ingredients in a food processor and pulse until the berries are roughly chopped. Set aside.
Combine ingredients for the pecan topping in the food processor and pulse until a crumble has formed.
Once the crust has cooled, pour the filling topping on top and then top with the pecan topping mixture.
Bake for 30 minutes until the berries are bubbling and the pecan crumble topping is golden brown.
Cool completely before slicing.
