Purely Inspired Protein Raspberry Crumble!

Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast? Or for that matter, who says you can’t have dessert any other time of day? This berry crumble looks and tastes like cobbler but it actually has the perfect nutrients for a healthy breakfast or snack during the day!

I found this great recipe on the internet, took it to my aunt’s house this past weekend because she bakes.  We tweaked it for my liking and gave it a try. The prep time for this Raspberry Crumble was about ten minutes tops, and that counted pulling everything out of the pantry and putting it on the counter. It was in the oven for 15 minutes and then one additional minute.

I’ll be honest with you – I didn’t read the entire recipe before I started. I was kind of hoping my aunt would take over and do the recipe for me but that wasn’t how it turned out.  By not reading the whole recipe, it caused some problems with my end product, so I’ll share the specifics of my “fails” so your raspberry crumble will be perfect!

  *  If you are using frozen raspberries, make sure they are defrosted ALL THE WAY, not semi-defrosted, gulp.

  *  If you are making this for lots of people, each recipe portion should be put into small forms and several raspberry crumbles should be made instead of doubling the recipe and pouring it all into a bigger bowl, such as I did. If you make several smaller raspberry crumbles, your raspberries won’t be overcooked (like mine were) before the center of the crumble is done. Your raspberries will stay firm and not cook into mush-like jam, or worse yet, burn!
