I “Trim Healthy Mama-fied” the Blueberry Crisp recipe from Bread & Wine a few weeks ago. Since then, I’ve made it a few more times to tweak it and get it just right.
Many of you asked me for this recipe, so I’m happy to share it. Please note that if you’re not familiar with the Trim Healthy Mama way of eating, this recipe might just look really weird to you… and it might even have a few ingredients you’ve never heard of before.
I get that, because I was pretty cynical of the whole THM way of eating for a number of months. But now that I experimented with it, I’ve fallen in love with it. And seeing as it’s been going on five months of eating this way, I think it just might be a new lifestyle. 🙂
Healthy Blueberry Crisp
- 1 1/2 cups oats
- 1/2 cup oat fiber (non THM folks, you replace this with flour or almond flour)
- 1/2 cup xylitol (non THM folks: you could replace this with sugar)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 to 3/4 cup coconut oil, melted (non THM folks: you could replace this with melted butter)
- 1 1/2 to 2 cups fresh blueberries (can also use frozen or other types of berries)
Mix all ingredients together, except for the berries. Sprinkle half of the oat mixture on the bottom of an 8×8 pan. Sprinkle berries over. Sprinkle the remaining oat mixture on top.
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until bubble and lightly browned. Serve warm or cold.
Please note: This has a higher fat content than a typical THM E meal. You can either eat just a small amount for a meal, eat it as part of a Crossover meal or snack, or use twice as much fruit to the crumb topping ratio.
Would love to hear more about your THM journey and what you’re eating! I read the book and followed it for awhile. I had to quit because I felt like it was more than our budget could support. I’m curious what your thoughts are on that and would love more tips for how to do THM on a budget. 🙂 Our diet is pretty healthy (we limit sweets and eat real food as much as possible, with protein at every meal) but somehow the switch made me come up short on cash every month. Thanks for sharing this recipe! I’m glad it’s working for you. 🙂
I just made this (non THM style except the coconut oil), and I have to say, it’s delicious! But maybe just because I’m pregnant and eating all the time (30 weeks!), but I don’t see how you can eat a serving of this and have it be your lunch! This was…snack time for me. lol
Just remember I’m small and I also eat every few hours. And I’m not pregnant! 🙂
Great – I was looking for a recipe to use up some blueberries I have in the larder 🙂
This looks great! I’m going to try this with apples 🙂
Yum! I have these ingredients and needed something fun to do with them. This is perfect, thanks! 🙂
Thanks!! 🙂
Thanks!
