Ooey gooey, delicious blueberry lemon bars! I’ve been super into making desserts for friends and family lately and when I found some organic lemons and blueberries on sale, I knew this was definitely the next dessert I was ready to create. Using blueberries in a raw desserts is amazing because once blended, the blueberries actually start to congeal which give the bars a great texture. Lemons and poppy seeds are a classic combination with blueberries which make this dessert taste like every bit of heaven without the guilt. Healthy, nutritious and divine flavor, soooooo good!

- 1/4 cup Poppy seeds
- 3 tablespoons fresh Lemon Juice
- 2 tablespoons Raw Almond Butter
- Place all the ingredients into a food processor and blend until a dough like texture is acquired.

- Add the filling into the tart pan and spread evenly.
- Place into the freezer to thicken.
Frosting
- 1 cup Coconut meat
- 1/2 cup Raw Cashews (soaked for at least 2 hours)
- 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla Bean Powder
- 1/2 cup Blueberries
- Blend together the coconut meat, cashews and vanilla until smooth.
- Split the frosting in half and blend the blueberries with 1 half of the frosting to create a blue color.
