When things turn a little cooler, we immediately start to crave more warming foods and this is one delicious addition to our menu! The fruit takes on a gentle caramelised taste and the nutty, crunchy crumble is yum. The nuts, oats and coconut oil – all add important protein, complex carbs and healthy fats to the dish making it an all-round good one.
INGREDIENTS
Filling:
5-6 green apples, cored and sliced
1/2 cup blueberries
1-2 tbsp rice malt syrup (or honey or maple syrup)
1-2 tbsp coconut oil
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp vanilla extract (or paste)
1/4 cup water
Crumble:
1/4 cup macadamias
1/3 cup shredded coconut
3 tbsp sesame seeds
1 1/2 cup oats
3 tbsp coconut oil
2-3 tbsp rice malt syrup
METHOD
- Pre-heat oven to 200 degrees
- Mix all filling ingredients, except blueberries, together in a small saucepan and cook until apples are softened. Gently stir through the blueberries. Transfer the filling to a baking dish.
- Mix all of the crumble ingredients together and spread across the top of the filling.
- Pop the baking dish into the oven and bake until the crumble browns on top (approx 20 mins+). Keep an eye on this as you don’t want it to burn.
- This crumble is delicious served with a scoop of ‘nice cream’ and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
- Enjoy!
