Wanted to see life in pink today... and also eat rhubarb, I love so much and get to eat really rarely here in Singapore. Usually I will compensate, when I am back in France and harvest all my mum's garden stalks :) but not this year unfortunately...... and my mum has been sending me pictures of her beautiful blooming garden every single day since the beginning of lockdown... which made me even more craving for rhubarb :) So today I assembled a simple strawberry and rhubarb crisp. I didn't have fresh fruits so I used frozen thawed ones, but it would be even nicer with fresh ones obviously. The crumble top blends almonds, oats, brown rice flour, coconut, sesame and maple syrup. Lot's of great nutrients, healthy fats, zero gluten, and a healthy natural sweetener. If you are new to vegan bakes, don't expect a regular butter and flour crumble texture and flavor, but trust me on this one, it is very yummy and next time you eat a regular crumble you might find it a bit too rich / sweet... Recipe below. As always would love to hear your thoughts and comments if you bake it. Enjoy !
