Instructions

Pre-heat oven to 350ºF.

Place a piece of parchment paper on a baking sheet.

In a bowl, combine the crust ingredients and mix. Once combined, transfer to the baking sheet. With hands, press dough to start forming into a rectangle shape. Then place another piece of parchment paper over top and with a rolling pin, roll until about 1/4-1/2 inch thick. You should end up with about a 10×8-inch rectangle.

Bake crust for 16 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Combine and mix together yogurt (or non-dairy option), maple syrup, and vanilla extract. Spread yogurt mixture over cooled crust and then top with berries.

Add optional toppings if desired.
