This ticks all the boxes for a healthy dessert. The mixture of oats, almonds, berries, dates, and cinnamon creates the perfect sustained energy-releasing treat that packs a hefty nutritional punch.

Cooks' Note

Making a better-for-you crumble was a challenge. The Baking Made Easy in me just wanted to use lots and lots of butter, flour, and the like. I played around with the topping a bit, using things like coconut oil and other butter alternatives, but I settled on butter for the best overall flavor and mouthfeel. I felt that the coconut took over the whole thing and masked the flavor of the fruit, but have a go with both and see which one you prefer.
