This recipe uses the whole pear, including the peel because this is where most of its nutrients are found. In fact, unpeeled pear is one of the richest sources of flavonols, plant based antioxidants that may help to reduce inflammation and protect our cells - so next time you eat a pear, make sure you leave the peel on.
The clever crumble combination of ground oats, coconut flakes, walnuts and cacao makes this crumble a source of magnesium, iron, fibre and healthy omega-3 fats. These nutrients help support your nervous system, your energy and your digestive health and can often be missed in the everyday diet.
Walnuts are one of the best plant based foods for omega-3 making them a good addition to any vegan or vegetarian’s diet as well as anyone who sways away from consuming oily fish.
The ginger, cinnamon and coconut sugar gently sweeten and spice this crumble and make it warming to your system, grounding your body and nourishing you from the inside out.
You can make the pears ahead of time or double the batch to keep some aside for your breakfast porridge or muesli.
Once baked, the crumble will last in the fridge for up to 3 days.
