IRRESISTIBLE DESSERT

Fruit Crisp ala Mode

Summer fruit is the best - but even a frozen blueberry makes a great dessert!

1. Fruit: 3 cups any combination of chopped apples, peaches, pears, plums, nectarines, whole raspberries, blueberries, blackberries - you name it it will be great!

2. Add to Fruit: 1/3 cup frozen orange juice, dash of salt, 2 T tapioca, 1/4- 1/3 cup your favorite sweetener (honey, agave nectar, zylitol) Tart crisps are the best!

3. Topping: 1 1/2 cup rolled oats, 3 T coconut oil melted, 1/2 t salt, 1 t cinnamon, 1 T shredded coconut, 1/4 cup chopped almonds or pecans. Put oats in a bowl with coconut and nuts. Pour on oil and add balance of spices.

Place fruit in pie plate, add items from step 2. Mix items in step 3 in a separate bowl and top fruit. Add 1/2 -3/4 cup of water. Bake at 375 degrees. For 30 minutes. Do not burn tops!

Top with Vanilla or Naked Coconut by Coconut Bliss - non-dairy frozed dessert sweetened with agave nectar - a gift from heaven!! Amazing taste for such a healthy organic treat! Available at most health food stores.
