One of my ALL-TIME favorite spring/early summer fruit combination is strawberries and rhubarb, the sweetness of the strawberries meshes deliciously with the tartness of the rhubarb. Usually they are ripe at about the same time, making it convenient to bake with them at the same time.
Most of the crisps, pies and cobblers are loaded with sugar and flour which a lot of people are unable to tolerate due to a chronic health diagnosis or like me you may simply want healthier alternatives that are nutrient dense. This dessert is definitely one of those options. Instead of all-purpose flour, I use a combination of almond and coconut flours with added ground flaxseed and almonds to add fiber and a good crunch to the texture. Adding cold whipped coconut cream makes this dessert even more appealing. This definitely turned out to be favorite dessert this year and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did! CHEERS TO A HAPPY & HEALTHY DAY!
