METHOD
Pre-heat oven at 180C or 160C with fan.
In a baking dish (I used ~30cm), add the frozen berries, mix with the chia seeds, vanilla extract, lemon juice and optional maple syrup.
In a bowl, combine everything for the crumble topping, including oats, nut butter, maple syrup, walnuts, ground flax, cinnamon and pinch of salt. Once well combines, top the berries with it evenly.
