Notes on Ingredients

All purpose flour This thickens the juices from the strawberries.
Strawberries
Sea salt
Oats Old-fashioned oatmeal is the best.
Vegan butter Use store-bought and homemade vegan butter.

How can you tell if strawberries are good?

This recipe is all strawberry-related, so make sure you pick the best! You want plump, brightly colored berries that are sweet and fragrant. Avoid strawberries that are soft, wilted or pale. Local strawberries are better than the huge strawberries you can buy at the grocery store. They tend to be firmer so they can withstand shipping and more bland.

How to make a 5-Ingredient Strawberry Crust

Ready for a delicious, fruit-filled dessert? Here are the steps!

Prepare. Preheat the oven to 375°F

The strawberries should be macerated. In a bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons flour, and the sea Salt. Toss in the strawberries. Allow the berries to sit for 10 minutes before you let them dry.

Prepare the topping. In another bowl, combine the oats and remaining flour with the sugar. Slowly add the butter, stirring until you get a crumbly texture.

Mix the strawberry mixture in two ramekins. Sprinkle the oat mixture on top.

Bake. To catch any juices from the ramekins, place them on a half-sheet pan and bake for 30 min. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips to Success

These are some simple tips to make the perfect strawberry crumble.

Only use the freshest berries. A subpar strawberry will make a subpar strawberry pie.
Do not overmix the crumble topping. It's fine to pinch the crumble topping between your fingers until it sticks together.
Take your time. The 10 minutes cooling allows the strawberry juices to thicken into a syrupy consistency.

Serving Suggestions

Strawberry crumble is great on its own but tastes even better when it's topped with vegan vanilla ice cream or whipped coconut cream.

Variations

You can be creative with the toppings and make this recipe your own. For different textures and flavors, you can use almond meal, coconut flakes or chopped nuts. To the topping mix, you can add spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg. If strawberries are not your preferred fruit, you can use other fruits such as blackberries or peaches, or a mixture of both.

How to store

You can store any leftover strawberry crumble in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up 3 days. When ready to eat it, heat it in the oven at 350oF or in the microwave.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it possible to get enough protein from a plant-based diet.

Yes, you can get enough nutrition from plant-based foods. The amino acids you need to build muscle, stay healthy, and maintain your health can be found in nuts, legumes and seeds as well as grains. Tofu, a soy product, contains all nine essential amino acids your body cannot produce and must get from food. When combined with legumes or grains, vegetables like spinach, kale, and broccoli are high in protein, they can provide adequate nutrition. Plant-based proteins tend to have lower levels in saturated fats than animal protein and can be used to support long-term satiety. Flaxseeds and chia seeds, walnuts and hemp seeds all contain omega-3 fatty acid, which can be used to balance the other nutrients in a plant-based diet.

Are plant-based foods environmentally sustainable?

Plant-based diets are becoming increasingly popular for their health and environmental benefits. Plant-based foods are more sustainable than those derived from animals. They also cause less pollution and emit fewer greenhouse gases. Plant-based diets also use less resources, as they are usually grown using fewer inputs than animals. In addition, animals that are commercially farmed often require large amounts of water, land, and fossil fuel resources. Global warming has been linked to some environmental effects of livestock farming. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the carbon footprint of individuals by including more plant-based meals in one's weekly meal plan. This will help support more sustainable, healthier practices.

Can I eat eggs if I follow a plant-based diet

Eggs are not allowed on a plant-based diet. This diet bans the consumption of all animal products such as meat, fish, poultry, eggs and other animal products. However, many vegan alternatives to traditionally egg-centric dishes can be found that offer the same taste and texture but don't use animal products. Tofu scrambles, omelets, and chickpea flour are excellent breakfast dishes that look and feel like eggs. However, they also contain plant-based proteins. You can use aquafaba (the liquid found inside a can chickpeas) to substitute eggs for vegan egg whites when making meringues. Flaxseed meal/chia seeds, or water substituted for one egg can help preserve non-vegan recipe without compromising the taste.

Statistics

Another found that following a diet rich in plant foods and lower in animal foods was associated with a 16 percent lower risk of cardiovascular disease and a 31 to 32 percent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease. (everydayhealth.com)
According to research published, going plant-based can cut grocery bills by $750 a year per person, Journal of Hunger & Environmental Nutrition. (forksoverknives.com)
