Ingredients
  

Nectarine Apple Medley

  • 6 Nectarines pitted, sliced
  • 4-5 Apples peeled, cored, sliced
  • 2 tbsp Apricot Jam
  • 2 tsp Cinnamon
  • 2 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 2 tbsp Light Brown Sugar or coconut sugar

  • 2 tbsp Tahini

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine your apples and nectarines with coconut sugar, lemon juice and cinnamon. Stir to incorporate.
  • Transfer chopped fruit mixture to the prepared baking pan.

  • Once a mixture that resembles sand is formed. Add the tahini paste and use a spoon or your hands to evenly distribute paste. The mixture will now form a crumb texture.

Notes

Sofia’s Tips:
  • Prefer peaches to nectarines? No problem! This recipe is also delicious when made with peaches instead of nectarines!
  • Big fan of Tahini?! For increased Tahini flavour - you can use 3 tbsp instead of 2 in your crumble!
  • All purpose flour can easily be substituted with whole wheat flour for an even hardier harvest crunch!
  • If looking to make this recipe vegan, the butter can be replaced 1:1 with coconut oil or additional Tahini
  • If looking to add a hint of coconut to this recipe - I love to swap out the light brown sugar with coconut sugar and butter with coconut oil! Give it a try :)
  • Play around with the added sugar amounts to suit your desired level of sweetness!
