How To:

• Wash and drain all the berries, chop apple and strawberries, transfer all of it to a bowl. Add sugar, flour, cranberries, cinnamon, and orange juice to it. Mix all of these ingredients together and transfer it to your baking dish.

• Add all the crumble ingredients in a bowl – oats, flour, sugar, coconut, pecans, and oil, mix it well. Spread this crumble mix over the fruits in the baking dish. Spread it evenly over all the fruits.

• Place the baking dish on a sheet pan, as sometimes the crumble juices might overflow out of the baking dish. Transfer it to the oven and bake it for about 50 to 60 minutes until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.

• Remove and let it cool slightly for about 10 minutes before serving it.

Serving suggestion:

• Serve it warm in a bowl topped with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream and a sprig of mint.

Note:

• Berries: You can use any berry or a combination of berries that you have on hand. You can also use frozen berries, in which case skip rinsing them, just toss all the ingredients together.
• If you have nut allergy replace almond flour with regular flour. You can also skip adding nuts, I add it for added texture and crunch.
• You can also use just oats, sugar and oil for the crumble, in which case just adjust the quantity of oat, add about 1/2 cup more.
