Strawberry Crumble – Perfect for Valentine’s Day

Square

I have this tendency to buy delicious fruits and vegetables and then after a few meals, forget about them. Case in point: strawberries. I bought 2 boxes cause they were on sale and looked good and kinda forgot about them.

So today I wanted to make a pie, but my pie crusts disappeared. Thankfully, I’m a smart cookie and I searched foodgawker for other recipes and found this one: Strawberry Crumble Cake.

I didn’t have any almonds (or rather, did not know we had any buried in our freezer) so I substituted the almond part with coconut flakes. I also didn’t have any barley flour so I just added another 1/2 cup of all purpose flour. Furthermore, because I always do this to any recipe, I lessened the sugar amounts from 1/4 cup to just under, and then 1/4 instead of 1/3. All in all, it turned out deliciously and it was easy to make once I figured out what to sub the almonds with.

This is a great recipe to try out for Valentine’s Day!
