Health and fertility benefits of Passion Fruit “Crumble”

Nuts are a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity.

Ingredients

1 cup raspberries
1 teaspoon coconut oil
1 vanilla pod, cut in half and seeds scraped out
1 tablespoon coconut blossom nectar or maple syrup (or sweetener of your choice)
1 small eating apple, peeled and cored
3 large passion fruits
1/4 cup cashew nuts, finely chopped
2 teaspoons coconut sugar
6 mint leaves, finely chopped

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 °F.
In a saucepan over low heat, cook the raspberries with the coconut oil, vanilla seeds and pod, and the coconut blossom nectar or maple syrup for 3 to 4 minutes. Pulse the apple in a food processor, add to the compote and cook for another minute. Take off the heat and remove the vanilla pod.
Halve and empty the passion fruits, reserving the shells, and put into a bowl with the compote. If the compote is very runny, strain the juices through a sieve into the saucepan and bubble over medium heat until thick and syrupy. Pour this syrup back into the compote. If it’s slightly too tart for your taste, add a little more coconut blossom nectar or maple syrup.
Spoon the compote into the passion fruit shells, sprinkle with the chopped cashews and add a little coconut sugar. Bake for 20 to 30 minutes (depending on your oven). Serve sprinkled with the finely chopped mint.
