Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries

1 cup canned coconut milk (preferably full-fat for a luscious texture)

1/4 cup maple syrup (or honey for a different flavor)

1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut

1/4 cup coconut oil, melted

1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

A pinch of salt

For the crust:

1/2 cup crushed graham crackers

2 tablespoons coconut sugar

2 tablespoons melted coconut oil

Instructions
 

Prepare the Base:

    - In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers, coconut sugar, and melted coconut oil. Mix thoroughly until the texture resembles wet sand.

      - Transfer the mixture into a lined 8x8 inch baking dish and firmly press it down to create an even crust at the bottom. Set aside.

        Blend the Filling:

          - In a blender or food processor, add the blueberries, coconut milk, maple syrup, shredded coconut, melted coconut oil, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt.

            - Blend the mixture on high until it's smooth and creamy. Stop to taste and adjust the sweetness with more maple syrup or honey if desired.

              Layer the Bars:

                - Carefully pour the blueberry filling over the prepared crust. Use a spatula to spread it out evenly, ensuring the filling reaches all corners.

                  - If you’d like, sprinkle a bit of extra shredded coconut over the top as a decorative touch.

                    Freeze:

                      - Cover the baking dish securely with plastic wrap or a lid to prevent ice crystals from forming. Place in the freezer and allow to chill for at least 4 hours, or until solid and firm to the touch.

                        Serving:

                          - Once the bars are fully frozen, remove them from the freezer. Allow them to sit at room temperature for about 5-10 minutes to soften slightly for easier cutting.

                            - Cut the frozen mixture into squares or bars as desired. Serve immediately, and remember to keep any leftovers in the freezer.

                              Enjoy:

                                - Each bite of these creamy, fruity, and refreshing bars is like a burst of summertime. Perfect for warm weather or as a delightful frozen treat anytime!
