Few desserts hit the way a bubbling fruit crumble does straight from the oven, and this strawberry-rhubarb version delivers that golden, jammy payoff without a trace of soy anywhere in the ingredient list. Soy hides in a surprising number of baked goods — in margarine, in certain oils, even in some store-bought crumble mixes — so making this one from scratch puts you fully in control. The filling leans on fresh strawberries and tart rhubarb, sweetened with maple syrup and thickened naturally with arrowroot starch, so it sets into that glossy, spoonable texture without any processed thickeners. The crumble topping comes together with cassava flour, tapioca starch, shredded coconut, and solid coconut oil, which gives you those irresistible clumpy, golden clusters that shatter when you dig in. Ceylon cinnamon threads through both layers with a gentler, more floral warmth than standard cinnamon, and a squeeze of lemon juice keeps the fruit bright rather than cloying. Letting it rest for ten minutes after baking is the move — the filling tightens up just enough to scoop cleanly without running all over the dish. This is the kind of dessert that makes a kitchen smell incredible and disappears fast.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish with a small amount of coconut oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, rhubarb, 3 tbsp maple syrup, arrowroot starch, lemon juice, and 1/2 tsp Ceylon cinnamon. Stir until the fruit is evenly coated and the arrowroot is fully dissolved with no dry pockets. Transfer the filling to the prepared baking dish and spread into an even layer.
