Gluten-Free Italian Plum Crisp
Nothing like a one fruit crisp to make this recipe extra easy. This gluten-free crisp is loaded with slightly tart Italian plums and a delicious crispy topping! Don’t forget to add some dairy-free vanilla ice cream on the side and you’ll be set.
If you don’t like plums or don’t have plums, you can very easily replace the plums with a different fruit you have on hand. Fruit crisps are easy to custom to what you like.

Gluten-Free Italian Plum Crisp
Ingredients
- 1 ¼ cup gluten-free flour I like to use Bob's Red Mill Gluten-Free 1-to-1 Baking Flour.
- 6 – 8 cups Italian plums* Sliced in half, pitted and quartered.
- ⅓ cup ground walnuts
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ⅛ tsp nutmeg
- ½ cup dairy-free butter 1 stick, melted and cooled to room temperature
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Coat a baking dish or casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Place plums in a large bowl and stir in 1/4 cup sugar. Spoon the fruit into your baking dish and set aside.
- Whisk together flour, walnuts, 1/4 of the sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- Slowly pour melted butter into the mixture and mix with a fork to start forming crumbs. Don’t let the crumb mixture form into a ball. Break up the crumb mixture with your hands and evenly crumble on top of the plums. Make sure the crumbs are smaller than 1 inch, so they took through.
- Bake for 45 – 50 minutes, until topping starts to brown and fruit filling is starting to bubble on the sides. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve with dairy free whipped cream or ice cream.
Notes
* It never hurts to have a little extra fruit in your crisp. I would adjust the amount of fruit based on the size of your baking dish.
