Ingredients
– 2 pounds plums for the filling
– β cup honey or maple syrup for the filling
– 3 tablespoons arrowroot starch or cornstarch for the filling
– Β½ teaspoon ground cinnamon for the filling
– 1 cup old-fashioned oats (certified gluten-free if needed) for the topping
– Β½ cup packed almond flour for the topping
– β cup chopped pistachios, almonds, or walnuts for the topping
– β cup lightly packed coconut sugar or brown sugar for the topping
– 1 teaspoon ground ginger for the topping
– ΒΌ teaspoon fine salt for the topping
– 4 tablespoons butter, melted for the topping
– 3 tablespoons plain yogurt (regular or Greek) for the topping
– Vanilla ice cream or yogurt optional for serving
Instructions
1-Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C). Cut the 2 pounds of plums in half, remove the pits, and slice them into Β½-inch wedges leave the skins on for added texture, though peeling is optional if you prefer. In a 9-inch square baking dish, combine the plum slices with β cup honey or maple syrup, 3 tablespoons arrowroot starch or cornstarch, and Β½ teaspoon ground cinnamon to form the filling.
2-Step 2: In a separate bowl, mix 1 cup old-fashioned oats, Β½ cup packed almond flour, β cup chopped pistachios or your choice of nuts, β cup lightly packed coconut sugar or brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground ginger, and ΒΌ teaspoon fine salt. Add 4 tablespoons melted butter and 3 tablespoons plain yogurt, stirring until the mixture is evenly moistened.
3-Step 3: Spoon the oat mixture evenly over the plum filling, using your fingers to break it up without packing it down for a light, crispy result. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes until the filling bubbles and the topping turns lightly golden. Let the crisp rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to thicken, then enjoy with vanilla ice cream or yogurt if desired.
