These individual banana crumble pots are healthy, tasty and easy to prepare.
The sweetness from the banana means you could get away with not adding any sweetener at all. However, just 1 or 2 tablespoons of xylitol (a granulated natural sugar-free substitute) added to the crumble makes it as sweet as any regular crumble.
It also helps to keep that crunchy texture which you can lose with liquid sweeteners.
I serve these crumbles in two ramekin dishes for the perfect-portioned dessert or breakfast! You can easily halve or double the recipe if you want to make more or less.

*A natural granulated sugar-free alternative. You can also just leave it out, and enjoy the sweetness from the banana and raisins. Or you can use another granulated sugar of choice. Please note that liquid sweeteners will create a softer texture.
