Flourless Any Fruit Crumble
I’m on my usual springtime extreme health kick so my recipes will be healthy ones. That’s not to say that they won’t still be awesome because I like to think that I specialize in making healthy stuff taste great and / or finding recipes that do. So. If you are also being super healthy with your life, and you should be…you will understand the need for the occasional desserty item. I like this recipe because it satisfies the post-dinner sweet craving and I can add a little bit of it to my morning yogurt – the entire recipe has 2 tablespoons of maple syrup and a little bit of carbs in the form of oatmeal (or quinoa flakes), so I”m pretty sure you can handle it. I used blueberries and it tastes totally awesome.
