Guilt-Free Strawberry Crumble

Four-Ingredient Strawberry Crumble
Four-Ingredient Strawberry Crumble

This four-ingredient strawberry crumble is also guilt-free. Only three tablespoons of maple syrup as a sweetener will bring you to crumble kingdom. This recipe can be made with any seasonal fruit, so it is also very versatile.

We are currently in Canada, and we have to be in quarantine for fourteen days. As we are in an Airbnb, supplies are limited. I didn’t want to buy a lot of baking goods, so I had to make due with what I had on hand. This led me to the conclusion that we overcomplicate our desserts, and use more sugar than required, especially when fruits are at their prime. I hope you enjoy this guilt-free strawberry crumble!

Guilt-Free Strawberry Crumble

  • Author: Karine K
  • Prep Time: 15 minutes
  • Cook Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz strawberries, hulled and cut in half (hold 4 strawberries to decorate)
  • 2 1/2 cups oats
  • 4 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 3 tablespoons maple syrup

Instructions

Place the strawberries in a medium saucepan, and add 1/4 cup of water. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer until you get a thick compote, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Preheat the oven to 350˚. In a medium mixing bowl, place the oats, the coconut oil, and the maple syrup. Mix until well combined. Place half of the oats mixture at the bottom of an oven-proof baking pan, pour the strawberry mixture on top and spread evenly. Add the rest of the oats on top, and decorate with the four sliced strawberries. Place in the oven for 30 minutes or until the top is nice and golden. You can garnish with some lemon zest for an extra zing, but that is not necessary.
