Apple & blackberry crumble

Vegan, wheat-free, gluten-free, low sugar

What do you think of when you hear the word autumn/fall?

I think warm, hearty foods with spicy undertones, fresh berries and apples!

Apple crumble is a classic Christmasy dessert. It consists of an apple base topped off with a crumble.

This recipe is very simple to make and tastes utterly divine!
The apple base is moist with spicy tones, along with sweetness from the maple syrup. The crumble is yummy with a hint of cinnamon and nuts for added protein and texture!
