The other day, we collected this fabulous basketful of plums, so after eating a few just as they are, I decided to create a new dessert, using chia seeds.
The amounts for this plum crumble dessert are approximate. After a few of the plums were eaten from the basket, I had just over 1kg left.
Ingredients
Just over 1kg Plums
1 tbsp ground Chia Seeds
2 tbsp Muscovado Sugar
Crumble Ingredients
2 tbsp Coconut Oil
2 tbsp Butter - chopped into pieces
4 tbsp ground Almonds
2 tbsp Muscovado Sugar
4 tbsp Oats
2 tbsp ground Chia Seeds
6 tbsp Plain Flour
2 tbsp shredded Coconut
extra Muscovado Sugar - for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 180 degrees C.
Wash and de-stone the plums. Cut them into quarters and put them into a deep casserole dish.
Sprinkle over the chia seeds and sugar and mix well to combine.
Mix all the crumble ingredients in a bowl with clean fingers until it becomes crumbly. (You could use a blender if you wish and stir in the shredded coconut at the end).
Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the plums. Add a little extra sugar over the top.
Pop it in the preheated oven for approx. 30 mins, until starting to brown on top.
Serve with a dollop of vanilla ice-cream, or custard.
Enjoy!
