That's the Way the Superfood Crumbles
This recipe is from my amazing mom—aka the OG kombucha and kale queen—and it’s a sweet crumble that’s satisfying enough for all you fellow chocolate lovers out there. I have friends who don't like chocolate (crazy, I know) who are still obsessed with this crumble, so it’s truly for everyone.
This superfood crumble is essentially a deconstructed protein ball that you can sprinkle on top of yogurt, fruit, nut butter toasts, oatmeal, etc. Or you can literally just eat it out of the jar—I know from experience that it’s just as incredible on its own haha.
I got my mom’s secret recipe for when I (sadly) have to go back to adulting after summer break!
