Raw Fruit Crisp (10 Minutes!)
Description
This crisp starts with a mix of soft stone fruits or berries tossed with cinnamon and optional maple syrup for sweetness. The topping is a combination of desiccated coconut, almond or coconut flour, pecans, and pitted dates pulsed together to form a coarse meal. Optional elements like coconut butter and syrup can bind and enrich the crumbly topping. The mixture can be eaten immediately as a raw dish or baked at 325°F to slightly caramelize and soften the ingredients.
The crisp topping adds crunch and a rich, nutty flavor that complements the tender fruit underneath. Baking deepens the flavors and creates a warm, golden crust while keeping the fruit juicy. Serving options include coconut yogurt or dairy-free ice cream to add creaminess.
This dessert suits a variety of dietary preferences and makes use of simple, whole ingredients to form a fresh and lightly sweetened dish ready in minutes.
Ingredients
FRUIT
- 3 cups Fruit something tender, like stonefruit or berries // we like peaches + blackberries, chopped
- 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 drizzle maple syrup (optional // or honey if not vegan)
CRISP TOPPING
- 1/2 cup desiccated coconut (or unsweetened shredded coconut)
- 1/3 cup almond flour (or sub 1/4 cup coconut flour)
- 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 pinch salt sea salt
- 1/4 cup pecans raw
- 2-3 medjool dates plus more as needed for sweetness / texture, pitted
- 1 Tbsp maple syrup (optional // or honey if not vegan)
- 1-2 Tbsp coconut butter optional, drippy
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil optional, melted, if baking
FOR SERVING optional
- coconut yogurt
- dairy-free ice cream
Instructions
- If baking (optional), heat oven to 325 F (162 C).
- Add the fruit to a serving bowl or dish (or oven-safe dish if baking). Top with cinnamon and maple syrup (for sweetness, optional) and toss to combine.
- To a food processor or blender add desiccated (or shredded) coconut, almond flour, cinnamon, salt, pecans, and dates and pulse until a loose meal is achieved, being careful not to overblend.
- For added richness / sweetness, add maple syrup and coconut butter and pulse again to combine (optional). This will also help the crumble stick together better. If it looks or feels too dry, add more dates (or maple syrup) and pulse.
- Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more dates or maple syrup for sweetness, cinnamon for spice, or salt to taste.
- Enjoy raw or bake. Before baking, drizzle with melted coconut oil (optional), then bake for 20-28 minutes at 325 F (162 C) or until fruit is tender and the topping is golden brown (being careful not to burn). Adjust cook time to desired toastiness.
- Enjoy as is or pair with coconut yogurt or dairy-free ice cream! Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to 2-3 days.
Notes
- Use tender fruits like stonefruit or berries for best texture and flavor.
- The topping can be eaten raw or baked; baking softens fruit and crisps topping.
- Adjust sweetness with maple syrup or dates as desired.
- Adding coconut butter helps the topping hold together better if baking.
- Serve with coconut yogurt or dairy-free ice cream for a creamy contrast.
