Blueberry Crisp

By KimberlySeverino

Ingredients

• 1 cup old-fashioned oats
• 1/2 cup almond meal
• 1/3 cup sliced or slivered almonds
• 1/4 cup maple syrup
• 3 tablespoons melted coconut oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 5 cups fresh blueberries (or nearly any fruit)
• 2 teaspoons freshly-squeezed lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons lemon zest (about the zest of 1 lemon)

Preparation

Step 1

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Add oats, almond meal, almonds, maple syrup, coconut oil and salt to a mixing bowl, and toss until combined. Set aside.
3. Pour blueberries into an 8 x 8-inch (or 9 x 9-inch) baking dish. Top evenly with lemon juice and lemon zest, and toss briefly to combine. Sprinkle the oat crisp mixture evenly on top of the berries.
4. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is crisp and golden and the fruit is bubbling. Serve immediately. Or let cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
