Lupin Free Mixed Berry Crumble with Almond Oat Topping
Warm, bubbling fruit filling topped with a golden, nutty crumble is one of those desserts that feels both rustic and a little special, and this version absolutely delivers. The berry base gets coated in maple syrup, arrowroot starch, and a gentle hit of cinnamon and ginger before baking down into a jammy, fragrant layer that's hard to resist. The topping is where things get really good ā rolled oats, almond flour, and sliced almonds come together with coconut oil and maple syrup to form loose, crunchy clusters that crisp up beautifully in the oven. Lupin flour has quietly made its way into a surprising number of packaged baked goods and gluten-free blends, so it's genuinely reassuring to work with a topping built entirely from ingredients you can see and trust. Almond flour steps in as the binding base here, giving the crumble that satisfying, slightly chewy texture without any of the legume-derived additives that can sneak into store-bought alternatives. Let it rest for a few minutes after it comes out of the oven and the filling thickens into something truly spoonable. Serve it as-is or with a scoop of your favorite ice cream ā either way, it disappears fast.
