How to make Vegan Blueberry Crumble

Ingredients

Blueberries

I like using frozen wild blueberries but you can use fresh if preferred. If frozen, you will want to make sure they are thawed and remove the excess moisture so it’s not watery.

Oats

To keep this gluten free, we will be using gluten-free oats but feel free to swap it for regular ones. You want to use rolled oats and not instant so keep that in mind.

Maple Syrup & Coconut Sugar

We will be using both maple syrup and coconut sugar but you can sub for brown sugar. It gives a nice sweetness but is not overwhelmingly sweet.

Almonds

I used almonds but you can use pecans instead. You can also try using other nuts, it gives this a great crunch and texture.

Almond Flour

Almond flour is great for gluten free baking so we will be using some. It really helps with the texture and also the taste of the crumble on top.

Dates & Arrowroot

We will be adding dates because they give an amazing sweetness and texture! Since blueberries release moisture, we will also add some arrowroot to thicken it.

Coconut oil and lemon juice

I used coconut oil but you can use another neutral oil if you prefer. Also, adding some fresh lemon juice provides a tangy flavor.

How to make it step by step

• The first thing we will need to do is to preheat the oven to 350 F. And then add the blueberries in an 8 to 10 inch greased oven-safe cast-iron skillet or 8×8 (or 9×9) size casserole dish. Add the filling ingredients and then mix well.

Tips & Variations

• Make sure to check while it’s baking so the top doesn’t burn.
• To make it sweeter, you can add more maple syrup or drizzle some after it’s baked.
