The most delicious vegan and refined sugar free berry cherry crumble! This recipes uses a frozen blend of mixed berries and cherries to make the gooey berry filling. I like to use 1/4 cup of monk fruit sweetener in this recipe to make the filling perfectly sweetened without using sugar. The delicious crunchy crumble is made from oats, whole wheat flour, date syrup, vanilla and almond butter. Feel free to substitute the date syrup for more monk fruit sweetener to make this recipe sugar free, or maple syrup would work well too!
