Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh cranberries
• 0.5 cup maple syrup
• 0.25 cup orange juice
• 1 teaspoon orange zest
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup rolled oats
• 0.33 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup coconut oil
• 0.5 cup chopped pecans
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 pinch pinch of salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh cranberries, maple syrup, orange juice, and orange zest. Cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 3

In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and a pinch of salt. Mix well.

Step 4

Add the melted coconut oil and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients, stirring until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 5

Spread half of the crumble mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared baking dish, pressing gently to form a crust.

Step 6

Pour the cranberry mixture over the crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the cranberry layer.

Step 8

Top with the remaining crumble mixture, distributing it evenly over the pecans and cranberries.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the cranberry filling is bubbling.

Step 10

Allow the dish to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm or at room temperature, optionally with a scoop of non-dairy vanilla ice cream.
