Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Almond Cream. Start by blending the soaked and peeled almonds with ½ cup of water in your blender or food processor. Add in the coconut oil, agave nectar, vanilla seeds (or extract), and fine sea salt. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender to ensure everything is well combined.
  2. Step 2: Make the Nut Crumble. In a separate bowl, combine the nuts or seeds of your choice, pitted Medjool dates, ground cinnamon, vanilla seeds (or extract), and fine sea salt. Pulse this mixture in your food processor until it resembles a crumbly texture that still has some texture to it. You want it to be crumbly but not completely pulverized.
  3. Step 3: Prepare the Fruit. While the cream and crumble are being made, wash and prepare your choice of fruit. This can range from berries and stone fruits to apples and pears. Slice or chop the fruit into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Step 4: Assemble Your Crumbles. In your serving dishes, layer the chopped fruit at the bottom. Drizzle with a bit of agave nectar and sprinkle with ground cinnamon to enhance the flavors. Top generously with the nut crumble, and finish it off with a dollop of almond cream.
  5. Step 5: Serve and Enjoy! This dessert can be served immediately, but allowing it to chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes can enhance the flavors even more.

Notes

  • Store leftovers tightly covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • For a nut-free option, substitute nuts in the crumble with seeds like pumpkin or sunflower seeds.
  • Experiment with seasonal fruits to keep things interesting.
