Here it is…a raw apple crumble recipe, as well as a raw vanilla mango custard recipe. Yum!

I was so excited when I came up with this delicious raw version of one of my favorite desserts.

Makes about 12 portions.

For the filling

Process in a food processor and pour into a glass dish:

4 cored apples, roughly chopped

1 cored pear, roughly chopped

2 ripe bananas, roughly chopped

1/3 cup maple syrup or xylitol

¾ cup raisins or sultanas

1 teaspoon lemon juice

½ tablespoon cinnamon

For the crumble topping

1 cup ground flax seeds

½ cup finely chopped nuts, or previously soaked oat groats (soak for about 8 hours)

½ teaspoon cinnamon

2-3 tablespoons maple syrup (to taste)

Pinch salt

Use a coffee grinder to grind the flax seeds. Mix all ingredients together in a glass bowl, adding the sweetener last. Stir well. It should be a bit lumpy, like a crumble. Taste test for sweetness and add more maple syrup if desired.

For the custard

Combine the following in a high-speed blender:

1 cup/240ml almond milk (you can get the recipe here)

1 ripe mango

1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla powder

1 tablespoon maple syrup, honey or xylitol

½ teaspoon lemon juice

2 teaspoons mesquite meal (optional, but this superfood adds a delicious caramel taste!)

A pinch of salt

Rocking Raw Chef Tips

For the topping you can also add dried fruit, for example sultanas or raisins, blueberries, cranberries, cherries, dried peaches…anything you fancy.

Granola makes a good topping too.

In the above photo I’ve topped the crumble with fresh blueberries.

Plus it’s so healthy you can have it for breakfast.

I hope you do!
