Gluten Free Berry Crisp - super easy and delicious dessert baked in a skillet! The coconut-oat topping is crazy good! 

Gluten-free Mixed Berry Crisp - healthy version of a classic dessert. crunchycreamysweet.com

Summer time is about easy dessert and almost always with fresh fruit. Even if they are not the main star of the dish, they can always be the garnish. I absolutely adore summer berries! It makes me happy to see my kiddos munch on them, juice pouring down their hands - happy faces!

There are times, when I manage to keep a container or two for a special dessert. Like this Berry Crisp - one of our favorite Summer desserts. It also happens to be gluten free, thanks to the coconut-oat topping that is crazy good!

This crisp is bursting with berry flavor. There is more fruit than topping but feel free to double the coconut-oat mixture for a thicker layer. I always recommend adjusting a recipe to your likings! I think a scoop of a coconut sorbet or ice cream would add more sweetness since the raspberries can make it a little tarty. The topping contains just a few ingredients that most likely are already in your pantry: unsweetened shredded coconut, old-fashioned oats, coconut oil and brown sugar. It makes the dessert healthy and lets people with gluten allergy have a sweet ending to a meal. You will love it!

I baked my crisp in a cast iron skillet because I just adore skillet desserts, but you can bake it in a casserole dish too. Feel free to use blueberries in place of raspberries or make a mix of all three. Whatever you have on hands - use it! The prep time for this dessert is minimal.

Easy, healthy and absolutely delicious - that's exactly what this Berry Crisp is!

Enjoy!

    I didn't have the berries called for in the recipe, so I used what was growing in my yard, boysenberries, blueberries and strawberries. I also doubled the topping. This was so easy to prepare and was so yummy with the coconut topping.

    Aaaah! What did you do that I can now view your page?! Is the CDN gone? Whatever you did, I'm happy about it because I can finally pin stuff!

    And I'm obviously all over this crisp. GF, dairy-free and whole grain without any funky ingredients! Totally my kind of recipe. 🙂
