Gluten-Free and Vegan Banana, Mango, and Coconut Crisp

Share This Recipe

When it's cold outside, take a culinary trip to the tropics with this mango-and-banana crisp recipe. It's a healthier take on a delicious classic dessert—that just happens to be gluten-free and vegan. Using gluten-free flour and rolled oats eliminates grains, and tossing the crisp with a mix of shredded coconut, sugar and coconut oil adds tons of texture and creamy flavor without the need for butter. Decent mangoes and bananas are now available year-round, but if you have a hard time finding ripe mangoes, try frozen—they're often better, since they're frozen at peak ripeness.

Ingredients

3 ripe mangoes, peeled, pitted, and chopped
4 ripe bananas, peeled and chopped
2 cups rolled oats
1 cup unsweetened shredded coconut
1/3 cup gluten-free flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup coconut oil
pinch kosher salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Mix mangoes and bananas together in a 9-inch square baking dish.
Mix together the rolled oats, shredded coconut, flour, sugar, oil and salt, in a bowl until well combined. Generously cover the fruit with the oat and coconut mixture.
Place the baking dish on a baking sheet and bake until the top is golden and the fruit starts bubbling around the edges, about 45 minutes; let cool for 15 minutes before serving.

Mealthy tip:

The best fruit desserts are made with ripe fruit, so be sure to select soft ones, even ever-so-slightly bruised, and rely on them for sweetness rather than adding too much sugar. The crunchy topping is what everyone loves. Be generous with it, and this dessert will be a winner every time.

Delicious oatmeal breakfast that also doubles as a dessert! Super sweet and tasty. I also love the shredded coconut on top! Sometimes I add a little extra.
