Print Recipe

A quick and easy sugar-free berry crisp that uses natural sweetness from fresh or frozen berries, oats, almond flour, coconut oil, and cinnamon for a wholesome, comforting dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups (about 600g / 21 oz) mixed berries (fresh or frozen; blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
  • 1 cup (90g / 3.2 oz) old-fashioned rolled oats
  • ½ cup (50g / 1.75 oz) almond flour (can substitute with oat flour for nut-free option)
  • ⅓ cup (75g / 5 tbsp) coconut oil, melted (refined for neutral flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • Optional: pinch of sea salt
  • Optional: splash of vanilla extract
  • Optional: 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup or honey for added sweetness

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, gently toss 4 cups (600g) of mixed berries with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and, if desired, a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 1 cup (90g) rolled oats and ½ cup (50g) almond flour. Pour in ⅓ cup (75g) melted coconut oil and stir until the mixture clumps slightly.
  4. Pour the berry mixture into a 9-inch baking dish, spreading evenly.
  5. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the berries without pressing down.
  6. Bake for 30-35 minutes until berries bubble and topping is golden brown. If topping browns too fast, cover loosely with foil for the last 10 minutes.
  7. Cool slightly (about 10 minutes) before serving to allow juices to thicken.

Notes

[‘Use ripe berries for natural sweetness; add maple syrup or honey if berries are tart.’, ‘Do not overmix the topping to maintain a crunchy texture.’, ‘If topping browns too quickly, cover with foil for the last 10 minutes of baking.’, ‘Allow crisp to cool slightly before serving to thicken juices.’, ‘Frozen berries can be used without thawing; expect more liquid.’, ‘For nut-free version, substitute almond flour with oat flour.’, ‘Butter can replace coconut oil for richer flavor but is not vegan.’, ‘Leftovers keep well refrigerated for 3-4 days and can be reheated gently.’, ‘Freeze baked and cooled crisp wrapped tightly for up to 2 months.’]
