Ingredients

Fruit Mixture

  • 2 large (400 g) apples cored and sliced
  • 3 cups (500 g) blueberries fresh or frozen
  • 5 tbsp (62 g) date sugar or use brown sugar or coconut sugar
  • 2 tbsp cornstarch or arrowroot flour
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp cinnamon

Streusel/Crumble

Instructions

  • You can watch the video in the post for visual instructions.
    Preheat the oven to 360 degrees Fahrenheit (180 degrees Celsius).
  • Chop the apples and transfer them to a large bowl, along with the blueberries.
  • Add the granulated sweetener, cornstarch, vanilla extract, lemon juice, and cinnamon. Stir to combine.
  • Transfer the fruit mixture to a baking pan (mine measures 6×9 inches/15×23 cm, but I recommend a larger pan like 8×8/20x20 cm).
  • For the streusel, simply add all dry ingredients to a medium-sized mixing bowl, then stir with a spoon.
  • Add coconut oil + vanilla extract and mix everything with your clean hands until the mixture is crumbly. If it's too dry, add a little more oil or a little water.
  • Sprinkle the streusel on top of the fruit mixture and bake the crumble in the oven for about 30 minutes or until the top is slightly golden brown. Enjoy warm!

Notes

  • Almond flour: You can use any other finely ground nuts instead of almond flour.
  • I did not peel the apples, but you can peel them if you prefer.
  • To make your own oat flour, simply process oats (regular or gluten-free) in a blender or electric coffee/spice grinder.
  • For an oil-free recipe, you could experiment with 4-5 tbsp of melted nut/seed butter (e.g. cashew butter, coconut butter, almond butter, sunflower seed butter).
