Hello lovelies,
Wow. Just wow. It’s been a hot minute since I uploaded a diabetic friendly recipe and I can only apologies for that. If I’m being completely transparent with you, I just haven’t found any diabetic recipes which really inspire me to get creative… until recently that is.
I found a whole load of diabetic friendly recipes on Pinterest a couple of weeks ago and it’s really ignited a fire within me to get back creating diabetic recipes for you all. So expect some more yummy diabetic friendly recipes as the months go on.
If you didn’t know or your new to my blog, I was diagnosed with diabetes back in 2020, so it’s really important to me that I do share recipes here on my blog which are diabetic friendly as I know a lot of you have or know someone with diabetes also.
Now crumbles… they’ve always reminded me of autumn and a really nice homely, soul-warming kinda desert BUT I came across a recipe recently which used summer fruits and I instantly had to try them out for myself.
I do love me a crumble so making them during the warmer months is a bonus!
Today I’m using peaches and raspberries to create the base of this crumble and let’s just say, I’m obsessed! I quite possibly think this could be my favourite crumble I’ve ever made (and I’ve made a fair few here on my blog).
It’s summery yet still soul-warming – the perfect combo, if I do say so myself.
So if your a diabetic or your looking for a desert for someone who is, then the recipe for todays delicious summery crumble is below:

This sounds delicious Elle! I’m always looking for new diabetes-friendly recipes. We’re lucky enough to grow peaches in my province and so I’d switch out the canned peaches for fresh to decrease the sugar content even more. Thanks for sharing!
Author
I’ll defiantly be posting more, I promise! Oh my days that sounds amazing. Defiantly, I can imagine fresh peaches are just as yummy as canned and like you say, decreases the sugar content even more which is a added bonus. Enjoy! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
This looks super tasty, thank you so much for sharing your recipe here. Peach and raspberry are two of my favourite fruits, especially in the Summer months x

They are just two of the most yummy fruits, aren’t they? They pair so beautifully together and make the perfect summer desert! This crumble is just delicious. Thank you so much for commenting Xo
This is great that you have some diabetic friendly recipes on your blog. My ex boyfriend had type 1 diabetes, so I’m very familiar with the struggles he went through. I think it’d be so caring to make this for someone who you know has to watch their sugar levels. It sounds lovely!
Author
I’m defiantly going to be sharing many more over the coming months. It’s such a struggle navigating diabetes and what’s good for you/not. Omg yes, defiantly, it would be such a sentiment. These really are delicious! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
This recipe is perfect for everyone. I can see me add it to yogurt or have with a few scoops of ice-cream. Love the yellow background 💛. You should use it more often.

Adding a dollop of either yoghurt or icecream will be absolutely delicious and work perfectly with this crumble! Ah thank you so much & thank you so much for commenting Xo

Crumbles are a must try! I love me a good crumble, they are just delicious and this summer crumble is no exception to that. Defiantly! Just change whatever ingredients you need too and I can guarantee it will taste delish. Thank you so much for commenting Xo
I love crumbles, but I use a natural sweetener and switch to almond flour/nuts to make my crumble topping as I avoid carbs. Love the idea of peach and raspberry together
Author
I love that! That’s one thing I absolutely love about crumbles is that you can chop and change the ingredients to suit your diet. The fruits honestly work so beautifully together! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
I love crumbles, but I’ve never heard or tried this recipe before. I think this will be a great recipe for my dad because he needs to watch his sugar levels. It sounds wonderful!
Author
You can’t beat a yummy crumble, can you? Honestly, this is the perfect desert for anyone watching their sugar levels. You still get the sweetness but rather than it being through sugar it’s through the fruit instead! Thank you so much for commenting Xo

Author
They are just delicious, aren’t they? They work so beautifully with the peaches – I’m obsessed. The best kind of summer desert! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
I’m surprised to hear that this recipe is diabetic friendly, I would have thought all that fruit and honey would contain a lot of sugar. Is it because the fruits sugar comes with a lot of fibre? Still, interesting recipe, I’d like to know what it tastes like
Author
The fruit is what brings the sweetness rather than the sugar in this crumble. This is low in both sugar and carbs, that’s what makes it diabetic friendly! The fruit defiantly brings fibre also. It really is delicious! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
I’ll definitely try this as I’m planning on cutting sugar from my diet! I love crumble! This one looks very delicious. Thank you so much for sharing this lovely x Penny | http://www.whatdidshetype.com

Great to see a different crumble as I have only ever had rhubarb or apple. Delicious! Especially on a Sunday.
Author
There are so many amazing different crumble recipes out there. I’ll defiantly be making some different ones! The peach and raspberries work so beautifully together. The perfect Sunday treat! Thank you so much for commenting Xo
Summer crumbles are some of my favourite bakes, with a side of ice cream it’s really all I need! This one combines two of my favourite summer fruits, so I cannot wait to try it! x
Author
They are just the best, aren’t they? Oh my days YES! Vanilla icecream added to this would be unreal. You can’t beat the combination of these two fruits together, can you? Thank you so much for commenting Xo
