Super simple to make and wonderfully delicious, gluten-free mixed berry crisp! Sweet and juicy berries, topped with a crunchy oat topping, combine perfectly in this easy summer dessert. Also diary free and vegan!
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). In a medium sized bowl, stir together the rolled oats, oat flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt.
Pour in the melted dairy-free butter and stir to combine.
In another bowl, combine the berries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest and juice, and cinnamon, and gently stir until combined.
Spread the berry mixture evenly across the bottom of a 9-inch baking dish. Evenly sprinkle the crisp topping over the berries.
Bake for about 35 – 40 minutes, or until the crisp topping is golden brown and the berries are bubbling. Let cool slightly in the pan before serving. Serve warm.
Notes
Note 1: Use a combination of raspberries, blueberries, blackberries and sliced strawberries. You can use an equal amount of each berry, or adjust based on personal preference / what you have on hand. Both fresh or frozen work well. If using frozen, no need to thaw.Note 2: Use a non-dairy butter stick-type substitute, or a margarine-type substitute. I use vegan Becel. Top Tips
Serve warm – Serve warm with a scoop of your favourite diary-free/vegan ice cream.
To make this all-year round, and super simple to throw together, use a bag of frozen mixed berries.
Substitutions
If you aren’t dairy free or vegan, you can replace the non-dairy butter with regular butter.
