Pork Free Mixed Berry Crumble with Almond Oat Topping

Warm, bubbling fruit filling crowned with a golden, nutty crumble — this dessert is the kind of thing that makes people hover near the oven waiting for it to come out. The berry base gets tossed with maple syrup, a hint of cinnamon and ginger, and a squeeze of lemon juice, so every spoonful is bright and fragrant without being cloyingly sweet. Arrowroot starch does the quiet work of thickening the juices into a glossy, jammy sauce as everything bakes together. The topping layers rolled oats, almond flour, and sliced almonds with coconut oil and maple syrup, forming those irresistible loose clusters that go perfectly crisp in the oven. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of pork and pork-derived products — no gelatin, no lard, no hidden animal fats to second-guess — so you can serve it with total confidence. Let it rest for ten minutes after baking and the filling firms up just enough to scoop cleanly into bowls. A scoop of vanilla ice cream or a drizzle of cream on top would not hurt one bit.
