Ingredients

• 6 cups Mixed fresh fruits (e.g., apples, peaches, berries)
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 1 cup Old-fashioned oats
• 0.5 cup Whole wheat flour
• 0.25 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 4 tablespoons Coconut oil (melted) or unsalted butter

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch square or similar-sized baking dish using a small amount of coconut oil or butter.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed fruits, 2 tablespoons of honey, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss everything well to coat evenly, and then transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, prepare the topping by mixing the oats, whole wheat flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir until evenly combined.

Step 4

Pour in the melted coconut oil (or butter) and the remaining 1 tablespoon of honey into the oat mixture. Mix until the topping clumps together slightly and is uniformly moistened.

Step 5

Spread the oat topping evenly over the fruit layer in the baking dish.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is golden brown.

Step 7

Remove the fruit crisp from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Serve warm, optionally with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a small scoop of light vanilla ice cream for an indulgent touch.
