It’s always good to have a gut-friendly dessert recipe up your sleeve to help keep you from feeling deprived.

This recipe uses fresh summer berries that are low-FODMAP-friendly. Of course, frozen berries are available year-round and are easy to stock up on. Berries are lower in sugars than most fruits and have plenty of prebiotic fiber to feed the good gut bacteria in your microbiome.

You can also change up the fruit in the recipe, based on the season and your own gut-healing diet guidelines.

Ingredients

• 6 cups mixed berries (raspberries, blueberries, strawberries)
• 1 small lemon, freshly squeezed
• 1 tablespoon arrowroot powder
• ½ cup tapioca flour
• ½ cup shredded coconut
• ¼ cup coconut oil
• 2 tablespoons maple syrup
• Cinnamon
• Sea salt

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. In a cast iron skillet or baking dish, toss berries, lemon juice, arrowroot powder, and 1 tablespoon of maple syrup until the fruit is coated. Smooth the filling into an even layer.
3. In a mixing bowl, combine tapioca flour, shredded coconut, coconut oil, 1 tablespoon of maple syrup, a sprinkle of cinnamon, and a pinch of sea salt. Mix with a fork until crumbly.
4. Pour crumble mixture over the fruit filling.
5. Bake for 30 minutes or until topping is golden brown.
