Ingredients
  

For the Filling
  • 4 large Ripe Bananas Use soft, overripe bananas for the best sweetness and moisture.
For the Topping
  • 1 cup Gluten-Free Oats Add texture and crunch; substitute traditional oats if gluten isn't a concern.
  • 1/2 cup All-Purpose Flour Acts as a binding agent; use a gluten-free blend for a gluten-free option.
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar Provides a rich molasses flavor.
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter Adds richness to the topping; use coconut oil for dairy-free.
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon Enhances flavor; can be omitted or swapped for nutmeg.
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt Balances sweetness.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Gather your baking dish and ingredients for the filling and topping.
  2. Mash the ripe bananas in a mixing bowl until smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture. Spread evenly into a greased baking dish.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix gluten-free oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Sprinkle the crumble topping over the mashed bananas in the baking dish, ensuring it's evenly covered.
  5. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the topping is golden brown and the bananas bubble slightly at the edges.
  6. Let the Banana Crumble cool for about 10 minutes before serving with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
