Pear-Berry-Macadamia-Crumble-for-Breakfast-or-Dessert

Lynda: Crumbles are super easy to make and ridiculously tasty to eat. You can experiment with your choice of fruit or nut topping. I wanted to keep this guy high in natural antioxidants, fats and fibre. I also wanted to keep free of refined sugar and low in dates. The fruit and coconut yoghurt provide enough sweetness to satisfy everyones palate.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 1/2 cup ground almonds
  • 1/2 cup 180 Grass-Fed WPI
  • 1 1/2 cup roughly chopped macadamias
  • 1 tsp vanilla bean powder
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 2 medjool dates (soaked for 2 hours)
  • 2 heaped tbsp organic butter (room temperature)
  • 1/4 tsp himalayan sea salt
  • 1/4 cup purified water (or water from soaked dates)

Base

  • 1 1/2 medium pears, roughly chopped
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • Juice from 1 lemon

Method

  • Pre-heat oven to 190 degrees.
  • Place macadamia, almonds, 180 WPI, vanilla, cinnamon and salt in a medium bowl.
  • Roughly chop medjool dates and blend well with butter and date water.
  • Add butter and date mix to bowl and roughly toss until mixture has a crumble-like consistency.
  • If too moist, add more almond or macadamia.
  • Place pears and blueberries in a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  • Pour lemon juice and cinnamon over the fruit and toss through.
  • Place crumble mixture on top of the fruit.
  • Bake for 25 minutes uncovered. Then cover with baking paper and bake a further 15 minutes to avoid crust burning.
