Ingredients
Scale
- 3 1/2 cups mixed berries (550 grams)
- 1 tablespoon arrowroot flour
- 1 cup rolled oats (100 grams)
- 1/2 cup almond flour
- 1/4 cup peanut butter flour
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 4 tablespoons butter, roughly cut into cubes
- 2 tablespoons maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- for serving – cinnamon, vanilla ice cream, whipped cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a baking dish, preferably a 1.7-quart au gratin dish or similarly sized casserole dish.
- In the prepared dish, add the mixed berries and sprinkle with arrowroot flour. Stir gently to coat, ensuring the fruit is evenly spread. Alternatively, do this in a separate bowl before transferring to the dish.
- In a bowl, combine the rolled oats, almond flour, peanut flour, and salt. Mix well. Then, add the cubed butter, mixing until the mixture forms a sticky consistency, best achieved using your hands.
- In a separate small bowl, combine the maple syrup and vanilla bean paste, then mix this into the butter-oat mixture until thoroughly combined.
- Crumble the topping mixture evenly over the berry layer, covering most of the fruit.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until the topping turns golden brown and the fruit's juices start to bubble. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
For a dairy-free version, substitute the butter with coconut oil or a dairy-free margarine.
Try adding nuts or coconut flakes to the topping for added texture and flavor.
Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream for a comforting treat.
