Serves 8

- 1.5 cups rolled oats
- 1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
- 1/3 cup almond flour

Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

- In a large mixing bowl, mix all the ingredients for the crust.
- Press down into an even layer in a tart pan.
- Bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing from the pan. You can put it in the fridge to speed up this step!
