If you’re like me and have loads of home grown fruit then why not try this delicious paleo fruit crumble. This is perfect for using up ripe fruit and can be made with all types of fruits including bags of frozen fruit. Ideal as a breakfast option, dessert or snack I love serving this with homemade coconut yogurt.

Packed with fibre from the fruit plus protein and healthy fats with the addition of nuts and seeds in the topping this is a simple healthy dessert. Great for the children and an ideal grain free, lower sugar version of a traditional crumble.
