Quick, before summer turns everyone’s house into a sauna, turn your oven on and make this crisp!
This is the ultimate lazy girl’s crisp. It’s rustic and fuss-free and utilizes fresh OR frozen fruit, whatever you happen to have on hand. It also requires just 8 ingredients total and is entirely vegan and gluten free. Huzzah!
The magic begins by adding your fruit to a buttered baking dish and tossing with a bit of sugar. Because we’re using rhubarb and raspberry – two relatively neutral and tart fruits – I find this step essential. Otherwise the fruit will lack some flavor and that sweetness you’re going for with a crisp.
For the crisp topping, we’re working with oats and nuts! This recipe is adapted from my Nectarine Strawberry Crisp – another must try this summer. Almond meal, crushed pecans and rolled oats make up the base while vegan butter (or olive oil) bring moisture and brown sugar a touch of sweetness.
Into the oven it goes for 45 minutes to 1 hour and it’s ready! Invite friends over immediately and dig in.
This crisp is perfect for summer. It’s
Packed with fruit
Perfectly sweet
Hearty
Slightly Tart
Nutty
Studded with oats
Simple and fuss-free
& Healthy enough for brunch or a late-night dessert
It’s also extremely customizable. If you don’t have pecans, sub walnuts or extra almonds. If you don’t have vegan butter, sub olive oil. And if you can’t get your hands on rhubarb or raspberries, use whatever summer fruit you can get your hands on (blueberries and blackberries would be a lovely combo).
Of course, what would a crisp be without ice cream? Tune back in this weekend for yet another ultra creamy, entirely vegan ice cream recipe that’s going to blow your mind. Cheers!
Vegan Gluten-Free Raspberry Rhubarb Crisp
Ingredients
- 2 1/4 cups raspberries (if using frozen, place in colander and briefly rinse under cold water)
- 2 1/4 cups rhubarb (if using frozen, place in colander and briefly rinse under cold water)
- 2-3 Tbsp cane sugar (or sub sweetener of choice, such as maple syrup or coconut sugar)
- 1 cup gluten-free rolled oats
- 1/2 cup almond meal (ground from raw almonds)
- 1/2 cup raw pecans (chopped)
- 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 4 Tbsp cold vegan butter (or sub olive oil)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (176 C) and butter an 8×8 (or similar size) baking dish.
- Add fruit directly to the dish and toss with sugar (1-3 Tbsp depending on preference // amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size).
- Add crisp ingredients to a mixing bowl and, using your hands or a pastry cutter, mix until all of the butter is evenly distributed. Add to the top of the fruit in an even layer.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes or until the fruit is bubbling and the top is crisp and golden brown.
- Let cool for 10 minutes and serve with dairy-free ice cream or coconut whipped cream.
- Leftovers will keep in the fridge for several days, though best when fresh.

Laura says
Turned out lovely! I made with strawberries 🍓 and rhubarb and two. I didn’t read until after I baked both has anyone made this and then once cooled put in freezer. Did it turn out just as good after freezer to oven?
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Yay! Thank you for sharing, Laura! It should still be very good reheated 😋
Sophie Roche says
This is such a great recipe, we reduce the sugar buy half in both sections. Just eyeball it and it always turns out soooo good. Usually, add in frozen strawberries and raspberries. Always, making this all summer long! 10 out 0f 10! Thank you :)
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Whoop! We’re so glad you enjoy the recipe, Sophie. Thank you for the lovely review! xo
Kerry Berry says
This was fab!! We swapped raspberries for strawberries and also sugar for honey and it was awesome!! You couldn’t tell it was GF / DF / SF!!! Hurray!!! Will definitely add this to my repertoire – to use all summer swapping the fruits!! I think next up will be peaches!! :o) LOVE!!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Amazing! Thank you so much for sharing, Kerry! xo
Corelia says
Minimalist Baker has done it again! I made this today with fresh garden rhubarb which I’d put in the freezer yesterday. I substituted the raspberries for strawberries, the cane sugar for maple syrup (did about 4 or 5 tbsp of that) and I basically omitted the sugar in the crumble – basically meaning I used a little bit of coconut sugar instead. And then I substituted the almond meal for oat flour, because I love that rough texture and oatmeal flavour. The tart/sweet balance was spot on, the crust was the perfect amount of gooey, and yeah, it was a family favourite!
Highly recommend!!!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
You’re on a roll with making recipe, Corelia :) We’re so glad you made another winner! xoxo
Shyla says
Can I sub the rhubarb for blueberries and expect the same turnout??
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
That should work, yes!
Sara says
Hello…can the raspberries be left out and just use rhubarb? would coconut sugar or another brown type of sweetener work instead of brown sugar?
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Hi Sara, it will be quite tart with just rhubarb, but if you increase the sugar it might work! Coconut sugar would work, just keep in mind it’s less sweet than cane sugar. Hope that helps!
Linda Gillespie says
I’ve made this many times and love it. Today however I want to bake it after guests arrive so it can be warm when I serve it. I’m wondering if I should get all topping ingredients together except for the oil, Kim using butter since it doesn’t need to be gluten free, or can I just combine all the topping ingredients, put it together and leave it in the fridge, then pop it in the oven after we start dinner. Thoughts?
Thanks, I do love your website!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Hi Linda, we think prepping the topping and keeping it in the refrigerator is a good idea, but you’ll probably want to drain off any liquid from the filling before adding to the crust. Let us know how it goes!
Dani says
What could I use to replace the almond meal and pecans? I’m allergic to nuts (other than coconut), but would love to try this!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Hi Dani! Since you can have coconut, you could try subbing the almond meal for coconut flour and swapping the pecans for shredded coconut. We haven’t tried those subs but we think they’d be tasty! You could also simply omit the pecans, and it should work. Let us know how it goes!
Roni says
This was delicious! I used coconut oil instead of the vegan butter; and also used apples, peeled and chopped, in place of the rhubarb. The apples went great with the raspberries and gave it an early fall taste!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Wonderful! We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Roni! Thank you for sharing! xo
Carlee Hemming says
I had never cooked with rhubarb before. All I have to say was, Wow! It was so good. I only had some almond flour so that’s what I used and it was divine! Thank you!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Yay! We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Carlee. Thank you for the lovely review! xo
Moriah says
I made this and used coconut sugar in place of all sweeteners. I also had a ton of rhubarb to get used so I did the raspberry portion as rhubarb as well. I didn’t have almond meal on hand, so I used my almond flour instead. All and all this was delicious! My in laws and family loved it and we all really enjoyed the pecans! Next time I will definitely use raspberries and no doubt love it!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Wonderful! We’re so glad to hear everyone enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing, Moriah! xo

I love this recipe! I usually multiply it by 1.5 and use a 9×13 pan. You can use a lot of different types of fruit…I use whatever frozen fruit I have on hand. My favorite so far has been the cherry. This recipe is really versatile and I love how easy it is to throw together! It’s a family fave! :)

Ace says
I’m not vegan or gluten free but I like the structure of this recipe, I’m assuming that instead of the almond meal I can use flour or would cornstarch be needed as well?
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Hi Ace, flour should be fine!
Cynthia says
OOO man. This recipe is AMAZING. I used half of the ingredients since I only had one stalk of rhubarb. I would recommend using a little less sugar but thats because I paired it with vegan vanilla ice cream. So delicious.
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Cynthia! Thanks so much for sharing!
Carole says
My go-to crisp recipe! I have made this countless times and have used vegan butter, regular butter, blueberries, cherries, strawberries, quick oats, rolled oats, almond flour, almond meal, regular sugar, coconut sugar – but I do tend to use a little less sugar than what is called for. I always double it and it is still gone in 24 hours (I have a high school athlete that DEVOURS this). The coconut vanilla icecream is our sidekick to the crisp, also a slam dunk of a recipe!! I already made it 2 nights in a row this weekend. Thank you for awesome, straightforward, and tasty recipes!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Whoop! Thanks so much for the lovely review, Carole!
Valerie says
Hi there!
What do you think about swapping out vegan butter with coconut oil?

This looks absolutely delicious!
How do we make the ice cream?
I did not see the recipe for that.
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Hi Amber, you can find our vanilla ice cream recipe here. Enjoy!
Addla says
Delicious and very easy. I made it with about 3.25c fresh Rhubarb and 1.25c frozen raspberries as I ran out of them! The pecans in the crisp really give it that extra something that now seems to be missing from every other crisp. Seems like it’s almost healthy enough to have it for breakfast…though maybe not after dousing in soya custard. Will definitely be making again.
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
We’re so glad you enjoyed it, Addla! Thanks so much for sharing!
Sydney says
I just made this and it turned out sooo well. Thanks for the recipe. I did sub coconut flour for almond meal, which I think was a good swap. I also added more sugar to the fruit initially and did 1.5 cup raspberry, 1 cup blueberry! It is sooo delicious. I like mine sweeter.
Support @ Minimalist Baker says

Happy Easter everyone!
What flour can I sub in for the almond ?
I have some oat, light spelt, coconut And buckwheat
Would like to make this day for our dessert :) tnx so much

Hi Sue, any of those might work, but oat would probably be best. Let us know how it goes!

Hello!!
Thanks for replying re substitute for almond flour. You said Oat would be a good one. For some reason I cannot see the reply in thread. Very strange
Anyways, I made it last night and it was DELICIOUS! ?Followed recipe exactly. Next time will use oat flour instead of almond
Thanks so much
Sarah says
This sounds amazing and I really want to make it. Do you have any advice on how to properly sub the GF rolled oats with Buckwheat Groats? I have a bad skin reaction to oats and would love to make this without them! Any advice you have is so appreciated.
Dana @ Minimalist Baker says
Hmm, I haven’t tested it that way, but perhaps you could modify this recipe to fit?
Angelina says
I made this crumble for the first time today, and it was delicious.
I used three tablespoons of honey as my sweetener and butter in my crumble. I also substituted whole wheat flour for almond meal (it worked!) and used almonds in place of pecans. I didn’t have enough almonds to make almond meal, so when I do, I’ll make this again.
Your rhubarb raspberry crumble is now part of my repertoire. Thank you!
Rachel S says
I made this recipe twice, to share at a dinner party and to share at an Argentine tango dance. It was delicious and healthy; I love how low in sugar it was. I received many compliments on it!
Edith says
I’ve made this recipe so many times. I usually use all rhubarb because I always have tons of it. THANK YOU!!!

I made this today for Mother’s Day. I think it’s the best crisp I’ve ever made. The crumble is perfection and the flavour combo is out-of-this-world good. Thanks!

Dawn Shea says
So delicious! I subbed walnut meal since I didn’t have almonds, unrefined coconut oil for the butter and subbed a little sugar in the crisp for a few pieces of candied ginger…so good! Great recipe to stick with or play from! I will definitely make this again!
ReaderRita says
This goes with my other review- I have made this many times, as written and with variations and I absolutely love it! It is the quintessential GF crisp recipe!
Laura says
Agree, ReaderRita, and that not only is thisnmy favorite GF crisp recipe, it’s my favorite crisp recipe, period!!!
ReaderRita says
So, so, so awesome. I have made this recipe countless times, subbing in different fruits and nuts, and sugars- it is absolutely foolproof! The one that is in the oven this very minute is strawberries mixed with a little lime juice and a couple grinds of black pepper, topped with an oat, hazelnut flour and almond mixture. It smells heavenly! The only thing I’d tell people is to make sure the gluten free rolled oats are the “old fashioned” kind and not “quick cooking”. That gives a better texture to most baked goods.
Thank you so much for this recipe- it is a staple in our house now!!!!
Eleanor says
Love this recipe!
We substituted plums for raspberries as it is plum season in Nairobi :-). Also used 2 tbsp smooth peanut butter instead of olive oil, 2 tbsp date syrup as the fruit sweetener, 1 tsp black strap molasses as the topping sweetener and almonds instead of pecans.
The first time we made it the topping got a bit burnt (probably due to our erratic oven) so on the second try once we had prepared the fruit we put it in the oven first and then added the topping when that was ready and put it back in for the rest of the cooking time. Worked a treat.
So delicious and easy to prepare – will definitely become a pudding staple!
Love, Els & Tom x
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Thanks for sharing your substitutions, Eleanor! We’re glad you enjoyed the recipe :D
Valle says
Thank you for a great recipe! I got gooseberries from myparents garden and decided to make this crumble for a friend. She’s allergic to many, many things but it turned out great even when changing almost all the ingredients (but same amount). I used buckwheat flakes instead of oats (oat allergy) and quinoa flakes instead of almond meal (nut allergy). I used coconut sugar for sweetening, cold coconut oil for fat and melon seeds instead of crunchy nuts. It was yummie and my friend was so happy to be able to eat it. I would recommend using more coconut sugar when using gooseberries tough.
Thank you for putting up amazing recipes!

Thanks for another wonderful article. Where else could anyone get that type of information in such an ideal way of writing? I have a presentation next week, and I’m on the look for such information.
Dorit Coish says
I have to say this is the best crisp recipe I have ever tried. I started making it last summer with rhubarb from my garden and am making it again this summer. I just put it in the oven but this time I used a combination of rhubarb, strawberries and blueberries. Can’t wait to try it. One substitution I made was cane sugar for the brown sugar and it turns out great. Thanks for this wonderful recipe. I will be making many more times!
Christine Read says
I have made this recipe 3 times with fresh strawberries and rhubarb. Awesome! Thanks for sharing easy recipes that help the novice look like a pro!
Laura says
I make this on the regular! The topping goes with every fruit crisp, and I just add a little lemon juice if I think the filling will be too sweet, and sometimes I add a little corn starch if I think it will be too liquid-y. I’m not vegan at all, but whether I use butter or coconut oil for this recipe, it turns out great every time!
Support @ Minimalist Baker says
Great suggestions, Laura!
ReaderRita says
I agree completely! And sometimes I throw a spice or some fresh herbs into the fruit mixture to liven things up if I feel the fruit I’ve got to work with is too staid. Fresh basil goes really well with fruit! Our last one of these was gobbled up in one day, lol.
Jennifer N Stam says
I made this over the weekend, served warm with soy vanilla ice cream to my non vegan in laws. I did not alter the recipe in any way except for using butter flavored coconut oil for the topping. Everyone loved it. It’s a keeper for sure! Thank you!

Absolutely THE BEST Crisp I have ever made! My husband and a visiting friend thought to too! Didn’t change a thing, except I made it with just rhubarb .. used vegan butter, chilled. SO easy to put together and the flavours and textures were totally perfect! LOVE your blog, and your cookbook too, which I also bought for my daughter. There’s a reason why you are always at the top of every Google recipe search I do! Please don’t ever stop creating all your amazing recipes .. we went plant-based just under a year ago and can’t believe the variety of interesting amazing foods we can make !

Hi, I have never cooked with rhubarb before but have some growing in the garden now. Do i just chop them up and mix with raspberries (intend to use fresh ones) for the recipe? When you say butter the tray/baking dish, are you talking about using the butter from the 4 tbsp that you wrote in the recipe? And can i sub chopped walnuts for the pecans? Thanks so much. xx

I can’t speak to the raspberry and rhubarb combination, but the recipe’s construction and crumble portion is delicious and easy. I assembled the parts before hand, keeping them refrigerated until I served dinner. It was ready when we were hungry for dessert.

I’ve made this rhubarb crumble for today’s afternoon tea and it was really delicious. I didn’t have any raspberries so I simply skipped them and I used walnuts and coconut oil insted of pecans and vegan butter and it turned out great! Just perfect with wipped coconut cream :).
Even my non-vegan family really liked it. Thanks for sharing this recipe!

Our last farm share had an insane amount of Rhubarb in it. I made this with a few substitutions (what I had around the house):
Cherries instead of raspberries
Bob’s Red Mill Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats instead of Rolled oats
Walnuts instead of Pecans
Coconut oil instead of vegan butter. It was solid at room temperature so I thought it would work nicely. Not flavor neutral but it’s ot noticeable through the tartness of the filling.
The texture was brilliant! This is my new go to crumble.

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

Is it possible to use a crock pot rather than an oven? With it being summer (not wanting the heat of the oven) and I’m going to be prepping other food items throughout the day for a small dinner party, I’d really like a gluten free option that you can throw together and then let cook on its own. Any ideas or suggestions for this option? Thanks!

No need for a thickener? Cornstarch or tapioca flour if using nothing but berries?

I just made this crisp today with strawberries instead of mixed berries, and it was so delicious!

Yum!
Will this freeze well?
I want it for Saturday but only have time to bake on Monday… hmm…

Oh. My. I’ve never thought of pairing rhubarb and raspberries, but I bet it would be fabulous!! I so want to try it!! Except now I don’t know which I would make…nectarines and strawberries are two of my favorite fruits! I love how easy the recipe sounds, too, so maybe I’ll just have to try both. :P
I had also had a question: do you think it would be fine to use cold coconut oil instead of the vegan butter/olive oil? Seems like it should, but I thought I’d ask.

My mouth is watering looking at the pictures! I’m excited to try this cause one of my most favorite desserts is a crisp.

I’m amazed at how much good food you can make without animal products! Your website is the best!
Leigha @ Minougirl says
Oh, YUM! I can totally see myself making this with some strawberries + rhubarb that are both in the fridge right now! I haven’t tried baking with almond meal yet – does it make a lot of a difference than flour?

It just keeps this recipe GF and helps add more nuttiness and texture. But feel free to sub regular (OR a gluten free blend) flour if you’d like!

I love making crisps for a crowd. They are such easy desserts and everyone usually loves them. I make a strawberry rhubarb crisp that I love, and I think this raspberry combo would be good, too. I love your use of almond flour–great way to make it gluten-free!

Love love love the combination of rhubarb and raspberries – slightly tart but so tasty!

oh I love rhubarb… I have to try this (I will substitue oats with nuts – because of Paleo).
Can’t wait to try it..

Yeah! It’ll still taste delicious. Good luck! I’d think you could also do a little coconut flour if you’re hoping to add a little texture.

This is the best thing I have made in a really long time! I am making it again today! I asked friends on FB for Rhubarb to be able to make it again!!! I used strawberries!
It’s unreal, thank you so much :)
