Background
During the winter months we crave comforting food. But not all comforting food has to be full of sugar or fat. This healthy plum and prune crumble is a perfect example, that healthy & delicious puddings do exist! I made it with gluten-free oats, dairy-free spread, but you can use normal oats and butter if you prefer. It has no sugar and no eggs either - yet it’s sweet enough, yummy and very nutritious too! Also, it takes only a few minutes to prepare.
Ingredients
- 6 plums
- 1 handful prunes
- ½ cup porridge oats
- 1 tsp cinnamon powder
- 2 Tbsp soft butter (or dairy-free spread)
- 2 handful of walnuts
- 2 Tbsp maple syrup or runny honey
- Greek yogurt to serve (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180°C.
- Remove the stones of the plums then cut the flesh into wedges. Roughly chop the prunes.
- Lay them into a small shallow baking dish and drizzle with half of the maple syrup or honey. Sprinkle half of the cinnamon over it.
- Put the walnuts into a small food processor and whiz until you get a coarse powder. Transfer this into a mixing bowl. Add the oats and remaining cinnamon to the food processor, then crumble the butter/spread over it and process until you get a breadcrumb-like mixture. Add this to the walnuts, then drizzle with the remaining maple syrup and combine.
- Sprinkle the crumbs over the fruits, pushing slightly down with a spoon. Drizzle the top with more maple syrup or honey if you like, then bake for about 20 minutes, until the top is golden.
- Serve with Greek yoghurt mixed with maple syrup/honey if dairy is not an issue for you (or custard, vanilla ice-cream for a less healthy version).
