How to make Strawberry Crumble

Preheat the oven to 180°C. In a large bowl mix dry ingredients for the bottom shortbread layer of the crumble (oat and almond flour, a pinch of salt and vanilla powder), and whisk to combine. Add honey and coconut oil and knead the dough with your hands.

Line the 4,77,8 inch (1220 cm) baking dish with the baking parchment and spread the shortbread dough on the bottom of it. Bake in the oven for 8mins. While the shortbread is being cooked let’s prepare the strawberry filling. Cut strawberries and place them in the bowl, add lemon juice, honey and cornstarch and mix. Set aside. In a bowl mix dry crumble ingredients (almond flour, oats and oat flour). Add the coconut oil and honey and mix it well with your hands till it gets a sand-like texture. When the shortbread layer is baked, take it out of the oven and cool it a bit for 5 mins. Then spread the strawberry filling over it so the strawberries fully cover the shortbread layer. Evenly spread the crumble topping over the strawberries layer. Place it back in the oven and bake for 35 mins. When the time is up, take the crumble out of the oven and let it cool for 10 mins. Take it out of the baking dish and cut it into bars. Enjoy it hot with ice cream topped or at room temperature as a cookie!
