Bubbling fruit, a golden nutty crust, and the kind of dessert smell that makes everyone wander into the kitchen ā this mixed berry crumble delivers all of that without a trace of ginger anywhere in the recipe. That matters more than it sounds, because ginger has a way of sneaking into spiced desserts, crumble blends, and even store-bought grain-free baking mixes. Here, the warmth comes entirely from cinnamon, which layers beautifully with the bright, jammy berry filling. Tapioca starch thickens the fruit as it bakes, so you get that glossy, bubbling filling rather than a watery pool under the topping. The crumble itself is built on almond flour and sliced almonds bound with coconut oil and maple syrup ā it bakes up crunchy and deeply golden in a way that feels genuinely indulgent. A squeeze of lemon juice keeps the berries tasting fresh and vibrant rather than flat. Let it rest for just ten minutes after it comes out of the oven and the filling sets up perfectly, ready to scoop straight from the dish.
