Ingredients

• 3 cups fresh mixed berries
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with unsalted butter or use cooking spray.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the fresh mixed berries and lemon juice. Sprinkle granulated sugar over the berries, tossing gently to coat. Set the bowl aside to let the berries macerate while you prepare the crumble topping.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and baking powder.

Step 4

Add the unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture forms a crumbly texture.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract to the crumble mixture and gently mix until distributed evenly.

Step 6

Pour the berry mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle the crumble mixture over the berry layer, ensuring it covers all the berries evenly.

Step 8

Place the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the berries are bubbling.

Step 9

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool for about 15 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve the Low Sodium Berry Crumble Cake warm, either on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra delight.
