    Strawberry Crumble

    I never feel like summer has really started until I’ve had the chance to whip up my first berry crumble of the season. Simple and completely unfussy, there is just something about this quintessential summer treat that signals the start of lazy days and warm weather. I have a tendency this time of the year to go a little overboard and buy way too many fresh strawberries each week at the grocery store. And what better way to put those gorgeous berries to good use than in a fruit crumble!

    For the filling, chopped strawberries are tossed with a little lemon juice, brown sugar and a good splash of vanilla extract, which adds a touch of richness. As for the crunchy topping, oats, pecans and a few other ingredients are mixed together with some melted coconut oil, before being sprinkled over the berry filling in a baking dish. The crumble is popped in the oven until golden brown and bubbling, and then served with a generous dollop of whipped coconut cream. It’s like summer in a bowl.

    Strawberry Crumble

    When it comes to fruit crumbles, I prefer to not use cornstarch in the filling and instead opt for a few tablespoons of regular flour. The flour helps to thicken the filling up and gives it a sort of gooey and juicy texture. However, if you like your filling really thick, you could always use cornstarch instead. Omit the flour from the filling and use some cornstarch in its place (you probably will only need about 1 tablespoon of cornstarch).

      YUM! This does indeed look irresistible. This looks perfect for taking to a fourth of July potluck! Although I'd probably toss in a few blueberries for the color 🙂

      Oh man! I made this last night and it is so good! I used AP flour since that was what I had on hand and I omitted the nuts since I didn't have any in the house. It was still incredible. I served mine with a scoop of vanilla bean coconut milk ice cream on top. That seemed to cut the tartness of the berries in the crisp. I love the crumble topping! At first, I wasn't sure about cinnamon with strawberries, but it worked so well.

      I am so glad to find a vegan crumble recipe which doesn't use a ton of oil or sugar. This was just perfect. I will definitely be making this again and will try to make one following the exact recipe next time. I used a 3-quart rectangle Pyrex, which worked, but the crumble was thin. Now that I have made it, I think I may either double the recipe to put into the same 3 quart or will use my square 2 quart Pyrex dish. Thank you so much for the recipe!

      I plan on making this several more times over the summer, perhaps trying different berries as well, depending on what I can get at a good price. This would also be a great thing to make with my little niece who loves to help in the kitchen and is wild about strawberries.
