Recipe tips
Using fresh berries, instead of frozen, produces a much better result. Frozen berries lose their texture and get quite mushy while baking.
Adjust the maple syrup in the filling based on the sweetness of your berries. If your berries are really sweet you might even be able to eliminate the maple syrup completely. Note: You still need the syrup in the topping.
Feel free to swap the sliced almonds for another nut. Don’t skip the nuts, they add crunch to the topping.

Instructions
For the topping:
Combine oats, almond flour, sliced, almonds, and salt. Add melted butter and syrup and stir until well combined. Set aside.
For the filling:
Combine all ingredients and pour into the prepared baking dish.
Sprinkle the topping over the berries in an even layer. I like to pinch some of the topping between my thumb and forefinger to help create some clumps in the topping.
Place in the oven and cook for 25-35 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges. Cool slightly, serve warm.

If you’d like a smaller portion you can half the recipe and bake it in a loaf pan. Bake time is about the same. Add vanilla protein powder to your yogurt to make this meal more filling.Nutrition
