Ingredients:
- 4 cups (600g) fresh rhubarb, chopped into 1-inch pieces
- 1/4 cup (60ml) maple syrup
- 1 tbsp (8g) cornstarch
- 1 tsp (5ml) vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) ground cinnamon
- 1 cup (90g) rolled oats
- 1/2 cup (60g) almond flour
- 3 tbsp (42g) coconut oil, chilled
- 2 tbsp (30ml) maple syrup
- 1/2 tsp (2.5g) ground cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp (1.5g) salt
Instructions:
- Toss the chopped rhubarb with maple syrup, cornstarch, vanilla, and cinnamon in a medium bowl until evenly coated in a glossy film.
- Spread the rhubarb mixture evenly into an 8x8 inch baking dish, pressing down slightly to ensure the fruit is compact.
- In a separate bowl, combine the oats, almond flour, cinnamon, and salt.
- Use a fork or your fingers to work the chilled coconut oil into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse, pea-sized crumbs.
- Stir in the maple syrup until the crumble clumps together.
- Sprinkle the crumble evenly over the rhubarb layer.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 25–30 minutes, until the edges are bubbling with deep red syrup and the topping is a toasted mahogany-brown.
