Blueberry Breakfast Crisp & Peanut Butter Banana Nice Cream

Blueberry Breakfast Crisp & Peanut Butter Banana Nice Cream

What if I told you that you could have breakfast for dessert and be healthier for it? Well now you can…you’re welcome. Here’s a guilt-free blueberry breakfast crisp with peanut butter banana nice cream on top. 

Blueberries are a potent source of antioxidants, as well as a good source of fibre and vitamin C. Antioxidants help slow aging, protect against cancer, heart disease, and help brain function. Health never tasted so good!

Time: 45 minutes

Blueberry Breakfast Crisp

  • 2 1/2 cups blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 2 tbsps lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp arrowroot powder (optional corn starch)
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup (divided)
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 1/4 cup ground flax seed
  • 1/4 cup almond flour
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil (melted)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350ºF (177ºC) and grease a 9” x 9″ baking dish.
  • In the dish add the blueberries, lemon juice, vanilla, arrowroot powder and half of the maple syrup. Stir to combine and coat the blueberries evenly. Set aside.
  • In a second bowl, add the oats, ground flax, almond flour, and cinnamon and stir until combined.
  • Whisk the melted coconut oil with the remaining maple syrup and add to the oat mixture, stirring until evenly coated.
  • Spoon the oat mixture over top of the blueberries and smooth it into an even layer.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes until the blueberries are bubbly and the oats are golden brown. Remove from oven and enjoy!

Nice Cream

  • 4 Banana (sliced and frozen)
  • 2 tbsps Unsweetened Almond Milk (or non dairy milk of choice)
  • 2 tbsps Vanilla Extract
  • 2 tbsps All Natural Peanut Butter (optional)

Instructions

  • Add ingredients to a food processor and blend. Occasionally scrape down the sides and continue to blend until smooth (approximately 3 to 5 minutes).
  • Scoop into a bowl with your blueberry crisp! For firmer ice cream, place in an airtight container and freeze for 1 hour before scooping.

Notes

  • You can use any frozen fruit or combination of fruits to make the crip
  • You can add other flavours using a 1/2 cup of frozen fruit for more of a sorbet, or a 1/4 cup of cacao powder for chocolate nice cream
  • Top with additional nuts and seeds if desired for an added crunch
  • Get creative and see what you can come up with!
