Apple Berry Crumble

With the days and nights getting warmer, we are more likely to indulge in lighter desserts. This easy dessert is perfect for a sneaky after dinner treat with a nice big scoop of ice cream.  You could even make it for breakfast or brunch and serve it with a spoonful of yoghurt.  The choice is yours!

This recipe has very little sugar and the crumble is made up of seeds and nuts, not oats and flour like a traditional apple crumble.  Making this ideal for those who are gluten free.  Serve with dairy free ice cream or yoghurt for a dairy free version.

Notes

🍏This dessert is a great option for coeliacs, as the crumble is only made up of seeds and nuts. 

🍒Substitute any fruits that are in season eg stone fruit, rhubarb, cherries or other berries.

🍎 For a dairy free version, serve with dairy free ice cream or yoghurt.

🍐 My dish measured 20cm x 14cm.  This will be a perfect amount for 2 large servings or 4 small servings.

🍓 If catering for more people, simply double or triple the recipe to fit the size of the dish you are baking in.
