Background

I think my ultimate favourite dessert is the crumble, particularly fruit's of the forest crumble with a crispy, healthy oaty topping. It’s relatively easy to make, but sometimes I'm just greedy and don’t have 25 minutes to wait for it, or I just want to make a single portion. So I came up with this Berry crumble cheat recipe which takes maximum ten minutes to make! I think it’s is important to use good quality granola - and the best ones are homemade with lots of nuts! You can use frozen berries too (which I do) - just defrost them in microwave or pour hot water over them to thaw.

Ingredients

1 cup of mixed berries (fresh or defrosted ones with their juices)
juice of ½ lemon
¼ tsp cinnamon
½ tsp vanilla paste (optional)
4 Tbsp nutty granola
To serve: Greek yoghurt or skyr

Instructions

Put the berries in a sauce pan. If you’re using defrosted ones, add the juices too. Otherwise add a couple of spoonful of fruit juice or water. Add the lemon juice too.
Bring to the boil. Add the cinnamon, vanilla paste and honey to taste. When the berries are soft and released their juices, let it bubble for a few seconds to thicken a bit.
Spoon this in a bowl, scatter the nutty granola ( or granola and some nuts) on top.
Serve with a dollop of yoghurt (perhaps mixed with some honey).
Serve warm.
