Spiced Plum Crumble

Posted in Gluten Free, Organic, Recipes, Spice Spice Baby by

I have to admit, this one made my hubby smile with delight. He loves baked fruit and we had quite a bit of Italian plums from our trees on Orcas Island.

The plum season is very short and we rarely overlap when the fruit becomes ripe. This year, we were lucky and I harvested 8-10 pounds of fruit (that I could reach) and needed to find delicious ways to use them. I created a Tomato and Plum salad with a Za’atar spiced dressing and I made numerous plum crumbles, galettes, and fruit salads.

This version of a crumble is gluten-free, using gluten-free flour and gluten-free oats. I also substituted sugar for grade b maple syrup which is darker in color and bolder in flavor. If you can find it, keep it in your pantry for special uses such as this. Paired with my Healthy On You® Spice Spice Baby Asian 6 Spice blend its a fantastic combo for crumble filling.
