Strawberries and rhubarb are the perfect match in this keto crumble. This Strawberry & Rhubarb Crumble was inspired by this delicious Rhubarb Crisp by Carolyn Ketchum, the very talented writer and photographer at All Day I Dream About Food.
What really makes this crumble special are the macadamia nuts which are not only delicious but also high in heart-healthy monounsaturated fats (you can learn more about fats in my guide here). I don't always have fresh strawberries and rhubarb, so I either use frozen or preserved fruits (recipe for Home-made Strawberry & Rhubarb Jam is here).

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200 °C/ 400 °F (fan assisted), or 220 °C/ 425 °F (conventional). Slice the strawberries and rhubarb.
- Place the strawberries and rhubarb into a baking dish. Add Erythritol, stevia and cinnamon and mix well. Place in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes. Mix once or twice to prevent burning.
- When done, set aside. Keep the oven on but reduce the temperature to 150 °C/ 300 °F (fan assisted), or 170 °C/ 340 °F (conventional).
- Add ground chia seeds and mix well. (To grind the chia seeds, you can use a blender or coffee grinder.)
- Meanwhile, prepare the crumble. Grind the macadamia nuts.
- Chop the pecans (or walnuts) and the whole macadamia nuts into smaller pieces.
- Mix all the dry ingredients in a bowl (ground macadamia nuts, chopped macadamias and pecans, almond flour, whey protein, desiccated coconut and salt).
- Add melted butter (or coconut oil), egg white, vanilla extract and stevia.
- Mix everything until well combined.
- Crumble using your hands and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and transfer into the oven. Cook for about 20 minutes at 150 °C/ 300 °F. Make sure the batter is distributed evenly all over the tray.
- When done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool down.
- Top the fruit mixture with the crumble evenly and set aside.
- Serve immediately or store in the fridge. Enjoy!
- Serve with a dollop of soured cream or full-fat yogurt. To store, let it cool down and refrigerate for up to 5 days.
