Directions
1
Mix the honey mixture. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, the honey, vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, almond extract, and salt until smooth and well combined. Set aside.
2
Toast the oats. Warm the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the rolled oats and cook, stirring frequently, until they turn golden and smell nutty, about 5 to 7 minutes.
3
Make the crumble. Pour the honey mixture over the toasted oats and stir to coat thoroughly. Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a deep golden brown, another 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to a bowl, and leave to cool completely — the crumble will harden as it cools.
4
Assemble and serve. Spoon the Greek yogurt into a bowl. Arrange the orange slices on top, then scatter the pistachios and chocolate chips over. Break the cooled oat crumble into small shards and sprinkle as much as you like over the bowl. Finish with a drizzle of honey and serve immediately. Store any leftover crumble in an airtight container.
Cook's notes
The crumble makes more than you need
The oat crumble recipe yields several servings — far more than one bowl requires. Store the rest in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week and use it to top yogurt, oatmeal, or ice cream throughout the week.
Add almond butter
A spoonful of almond butter takes this bowl to another level — stir it into the yogurt before topping, or drizzle a little on top just before serving. It adds richness and complements the almond extract in the crumble beautifully.
Yogurt choice
Plain whole milk Greek yogurt gives the most authentic cannoli-like tang and creaminess. A flavored variety works perfectly well too — vanilla or honey-flavored yogurt lean into the dessert feel even more.
