Some notes on the strawberry crumble topping
The topping can easily be modified to suit your taste and ingredients on hand. Here are some options:
Since the recipe doesn’t call for a crust, you could easily double the topping and spread half on the bottom of the baking pan and the other half on top of the strawberries.Another sugar like coconut sugar can be subbed for maple sugar.You could also use coconut oil in place of the ghee in this recipe.
Speaking of topping, don’t forget the ice cream for serving!
Don’t overcook the strawberries in this healthy crumble
It happens fast – the strawberries can go from retaining a little bit of their texture to a soupy mess real quick. We like to bake this crumble for just about 10-12 minutes. The strawberries end up warmed up, but not overly mushy. Also, if you bake for too long, the crumble topping just kind of gets cooked into the mushy strawberries and loses it’s texture as well. So, the lesson here is to just bake long enough to warm the strawberries through and serve it up right away!
Ideas for optional toppings
Don’t forget you can throw some optional toppings on your strawberry crumble to jazz it up a bit. Here are some options:
A scoop (or two 😉 ??) of regular or dairy-free ice creamA drizzle of balsamic reduction (think thick and sweet balsamic)Some warm coconut butterMelted dark chocolate
