Fruit crisps are a simple to make treat and perfect for summer barbeques or those classic afternoon cravings. Like the frozen yogurt bark, this summer treat gives opportunity to include added health benefits with additional protein, fiber, and essential nutrients all from the crumble topping. By using either frozen fruits or fresh fruit that’s in season, you can customize your dessert with your favorite combination of fruits and berries such as:
- Peaches
- Plums
- Nectarines
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Blackberries
- Raspberries
Of course a fruit crisp wouldn’t have its “crisp” without the crumble topping to round everything together. The topping brings the protein and fiber which will compliment the natural sweetness from the fruit. For the topping use:
- Whole grain oats
- Nuts for added texture
- Flax and hemp seeds for a boost of essential vitamins and minerals
- Maple syrup and orange juice for natural sweetness,
- Cinnamon and salt for added flavor
Finally, top everything off with a scoop of whipped cream to get the perfect summer treat.
