Apple, cherry, and blueberry crisp is a dessert for anytime of year!
This crisp is a combination of apples, berries, sugar, a bit of arrowroot to thicken and some bright zest of orange and lemon. It’s topped with some almond flour, butter and sugar.
You can swap out the cherries and blueberries for other fruits such as pears, blackberries, or raspberries.
It’s baked until golden brown on top. You can serve it alone, with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream or a drizzle of heavy, raw cream.
Here are some additional fruit desserts you might enjoy:

You can use whatever combination of fruit you like. No need to thaw the fruit before mixing. I prefer to serve my crisps with a drizzle of fresh cream.

- 1 tablespoon coconut flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
- 1/4 cup maple sugar, sucanat, or organic cane sugar
- 2 tablespoons arrowroot

- Preheat the oven to 350ºF and adjust the rack to the middle position. Place the apples, blueberries, cherries, sugar, arrowroot, zests, and juices in a large bowl and stir until combined. Pour into an 11 x 7” baking dish, or spoon mixture into 6 oz. ramekins.
- Place the almond flour, coconut flour, sea salt, maple sugar, gelatin and arrowroot in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a few times to combine.
