Whenever we go to potlucks and parties, I love when people make any kind of crisp for dessert. Unfortunately, since our family has become gluten free, I know that most people use ingredients with gluten, so I steer clear.

Is Oatmeal Gluten Free?

This is one of the most common questions I get from people.

Oatmeal is naturally gluten free; however, because it’s processed in large factories it may come in contact with gluten. The best thing to do is only cook with oatmeal that has been certified gluten free. This will be the best protection and keep your stomach safe from the havoc gluten can wreak on you. Here are some great certified gluten free brands of oats.

Many people are okay with certified gluten free oats, but some people will need to avoid them as well. If you can’t have oats, check out the yummy cobbler recipes above!

What Are Fruit Crisps?

Fruit crisps are a decadent dessert that is loaded with fruit, oats, and sugar. You can make all different kinds of gluten free fruit crisps. Just like this apricot crisp, they are baked and have a sweet flavor that is often served hot with a helping of ice cream.

Do Fruit Crisps Need To Be Refrigerated?

This gluten free apricot crisp doesn’t have to be refrigerated after it’s cooked. However, many people prefer the flavor and texture of cold crisps. So, basically, you can refrigerate or not based on your preference.

Whether you refrigerate the apricot crisp or not, make sure you save any leftovers in an airtight container. Moisture and air will make it age faster, and it won’t be as good.

To warm it back up, you can toss it in the microwave for a few seconds or put it back on the oven at 325 degrees for 10 – 15 minutes.

How Long Does Apricot Crisp Last?

LOL, in our house it doesn’t last more than a few minutes. Typically, leftover gluten free apricot crisp will last 2-3 days. When it starts turning bad and bacteria begin growing, you will notice that there may be mold growing. For sure throw it out if you ever notice this.

Don’t be alarmed if the apricot crisp becomes a little watery at the beginning that is just the fruit and sugar separating and it’s totally normal. You can just heat it up, and some of the water should evaporate.

Shopping List:

Optional Tips:

How To Make This Apricot Crisp Recipe:

Depending on the size of your apricots, half the apricots and remove the seeds. Our apricots are on the small side so I didn’t need to cut them further. If your apricots are large, cut them into slices. Place them into a cast iron skillet or baking dish.

In a bowl, mix up the crisp topping and mix. Add the melted coconut oil and stir. Sprinkle the crisp topping over the apricots and bake at 350F degrees for 20-22 minutes until the apricots are cooked and the crisp is slightly bubbly. Be careful not to over-cook or your crisp  mixture will burn.

Serve warm with ice cream or whipped cream on top!
