Blueberry Crisp (Vegan + Gluten-Free) - Rhian's Recipes (2024)

This Blueberry Crisp is juicy and jammy and topped with a chewy, crispy crumble. It's the best comforting dessert that can be enjoyed hot or cold. It's vegan, gluten-free, refined sugar free, and nut-free and oil-free optional.

How to make this recipe

Scroll down to the bottom of the post for the full recipe.

• Place the blueberries, lemon juice and maple syrup in a baking dish (I used one measuring 26 cm (10 inch) by 18 cm (7 inch) and 7 cm (2 ½ inch) tall).

• Make the crumble topping. Place all the ingredients in afood processor.

• Whizz until you get a fairly smooth and firm dough.

• Use your fingers to crumble the topping over the top until it is all used up and the blueberries are completely covered.

• Top with chopped pecan nuts, if desired.

• Bake in the oven for around 25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.

How long does this keep for?

It keeps covered in the fridge for a few days.

You can enjoy this Blueberry Crisp hot or cold. It tastes great with custard, ice cream or plant-based yogurt.

Substitutions you can make

• You can useany type of plant-based milk:almond milk, cashew milk, oat milk, rice milk, soy milk etc.
• If you're not into blueberries, you can replace them with strawberries, raspberries or peaches (but bear in mind you would need to use more sweetener depending on the type of fruit you use and how acidic it is) - if you prefer apples, I also have an Apple Crisp recipe.
• You can add some ground cinnamon to the blueberries.
• You can use any type of liquid sweetener: maple syrup, agave syrup, brown rice syrup etc.
• You can top it with any type of chopped nuts before baking:pecan nuts, walnuts, almonds, pistachios, desiccatedcoconut, flaked coconut etc.
