  • 1 cup oats
  • 1 cup desiccated coconut
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla bean powder or vanilla extract
  • 150 grams butter melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180 degrees fan forced
  • Combine the apples, berries, spices, lemon juice in a bowl and pop into an ovenproof dish with 1/3 cup of water.
  • To make the crumble, place all the ingredients in a bowl and mix to combine.

Notes

This is also delicious served cold.
Make extra crumble topping, pop on a baking tray and bake until golden brown. The topping is handy to throw on top of fresh fruit, served with yoghurt for a quick breakfast, snack or lunchbox idea. Just store in the fridge or freezer.
