Summer is a wonderful time with so many fruits and vegetables available at the market. I get excited about what I find and have a slight tendency to overbuy, just a little. Unfortunately this week I was under the weather and found myself with a lot of overripe fruit that were just a little past their prime. I’d made enough jam for the season so that wasn’t an option. Despite the heat, I decided to make a fruit crumble.

I found a recipe on Eating Well and used it as a guide. I liked it because it wasn’t overly sweet and used whole wheat flour. With a dollop of Greek yogurt it sounded like just the thing for a summer morning breakfast.

I pulled the fruits I wanted to use up – nectarines, strawberries, and blueberries, The fruit was prepped with a little sugar, flour, and lemon juice and split between individual ramekins.

Then I mixed together a simple topping of oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, and canola oil and topped each ramekin.

After baking and a bit of time to cool, they were ready to eat – a great way to start the day.
