Berry Coconut Crisps are the easiest dessert and absolutely delicious. A base of berries topped with a walnut crumble with a hint of coconut is irresistible!
These Berry Coconut Crisps should definitely make your list of favorite desert recipes. It’s sweet yet tart with a crispy crunchy topping that you won’t be able to get enough of. I made these the other day for the kids after school and they absolutely lost their minds. The best part is you use frozen berries so you can make these any time of year and have delicious results!
When we go to the farmers market, we always buy tons and tons of berries. If Gemma goes with me, the berries sometimes don’t even make it home! My family is 100% berry obsessed so these Berry Coconut Crisps were a no brainer. Fresh out of the oven, I challenge you to find a more satisfying dessert. Topped with some whipped cream or vanilla ice cream, you can’t get much better than these!
I make these Berry Crisps in small ramekins so everyone can have their own personal crisp, but you can absolutely make it all in one larger baking dish without a problem. The recipe calls for tapioca flour, but I also tested it out with corn starch and it worked perfectly! Just use half as much corn starch (1/2 tablespoon for this recipe) and you’re good to go.
I love this recipe too because since it’s so simple, it’s a great one to get your kids to help you make. I’m always trying to come up with recipes that get my kids involved in the kitchen.

This was super simple and great woth yogurt for breakfast! Kids really did enjoy helping to make. Thanks.
This looks great! Are the oats missing in the recipe? You mention it is an oat crumble but don’t see it listed in the recipe. Thank you!
Great substitution! So glad to hear it was a hit!
Great recipe! I subbed pumpkin seeds for the nuts due to an allergy and served it for Mother’s Day lunch. Kids and adults loved it with homemade coconut milk ice cream.
