About Fruit crumble bar

Fruit crumble bars are a dessert or snack made by layering a crumbly, buttery oat mixture over a fruit filling, often incorporating fruits like apples, berries, or peaches. Originating from Western cuisines, they represent a portable twist on classic fruit desserts like crumbles or cobblers. Nutritionally, fruit crumble bars typically provide carbohydrates primarily from oats and sugar, along with vitamins and antioxidants from the fruit filling. They can also offer small amounts of dietary fiber and healthy fats if made with whole-grain oats and reduced amounts of added sugars or fats. The nutritional profile largely depends on the recipe, with homemade versions offering more control over sugar and fat content compared to store-bought options.

Health Benefits

• Rich in dietary fiber from oats, which supports digestive health and can help regulate blood sugar levels.
• Contains antioxidants like vitamin C and flavonoids from fruits, which contribute to immune support and may combat oxidative stress.
• Provides slow-digesting complex carbohydrates from oats, offering sustained energy throughout the day.

Dietary Considerations

Allergens: Contains gluten (from wheat-based flours), dairy (if butter is used), nuts (if included)

Suitable for: Vegetarian diet

Not suitable for: Gluten-free diet (unless made with gluten-free oats/flour), vegan diet (unless dairy-free butter substitutes are used)

Selection and Storage

Store fruit crumble bars in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate to extend freshness for up to 5 days. Reheat briefly in the oven if desired for a fresh, warm texture.
