Gluten Free Apple Pie Bars

0 Preheat oven to 350° and line a 9 inch square pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
1 In a large bowl, make the shortbread. Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, coconut oil, maple syrup, and salt. Mix until well combined. Divide the dough into 4th's and use press 3/4 into the bottom of the pan and save the remaining 1/4 in a small bowl for the topping.
2 Bake shortbread for 12-14 minutes- it should be lightly brown around the edges.
3 While the shortbread bakes, make the apple layer. Place apples in a medium bowl and add apple pie spice, salt, and arrowroot powder. Toss to coat evenly. Dump into a small saucepan and add the maple syrup. Cook on medium heat, stirring the whole time, until thickened- about 5-7 minutes.
4 Once shortbread is baked, remove and let cool 5 minutes. Then scoop the apple mixture onto the shortbread, spreading it as evenly as possible.
5 Take remaining 1/4 of the shortbread mixture and add the pecans and apple pie spice. Mix together and sprinkle evenly over the apple mixture. Press down slightly so it stays in place.
6 Bake for 20-22 minutes. Enjoy warm and store all leftovers in the fridge.
