Happy Friday friends! What are you up to this weekend? Any fun plans? I will be in the kitchen making this Apple Blueberry Crumble with Coconut for the second time this week. This crumble is so tasty, your friends and family will never know it’s good for them too! It’s loaded with healthy ingredients and leaves you wanting more. The crumble has a great crispy bite from toasted up oats, sweetness from the flowery honey and fresh fruit and a nice creaminess from the coconut milk. The flavors are perfectly balanced so nothing is overwhelming.
This recipe is very forgiving. You can swap out the berries for whatever you have on hand or to suit your taste preferences. You can even add a cup of nuts or seeds to the crumble itself for some variety. You can also just make the crumble portion of the recipe and keep it on hand in the fridge for a few days to top yogurt, oatmeal or just eat with a spoon, it’s that good!
If you’re looking to satisfy your sweet tooth in a healthy way, look no further and make this today!
Chop up your apples into bite size pieces and put in a large bowl. I love using Granny Smith’s when baking.
Add in your blueberries.
Pour in the honey, coconut milk and vanilla extract.
Mix together and set aside.
Measure out oats and add to another bowl.
Add in flour…
…and coconut.
Grab a can of coconut milk.
Pour it right in the bowl with some coconut oil. I love coconut!
Next, add in the honey and vanilla extract.
Plus a pinch of salt.
Mix the crumble mixture all together. Take a bite or 5 for quality control purposes. I’m pretty much obsessed with this stuff 😉
Pour the filling mixture into a greased baking dish.
With your fingers, evenly distribute the crumble over the fruit mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees, covered for 15 minutes and uncovered for 20-25 until crumble starts to brown.
Enjoy this good for you dessert!
Have a fabulous weekend!
XO, Sarah

- 3 tbsp melted coconut oil + more for baking dish
- ½ cup coconut milk

- Preheat your oven to 350. Generously rub your baking dish with coconut oil to prevent sticking.

I love everything from cake to kale. Life is all about balance. I like to live, laugh and love to the fullest! Our time is too short not to enjoy ourselves.
Hi Sarah, where’s the chocolate for the hubs!!! Sounds delicious-have a great weekend! Your Florida Bud, Cheryl
Ha! You know him so well ! I have to make desserts for me once and a while 😉 Have a wonderful weekend!
That is true Sarah!
Now I see what you meant. :)) I like the idea of combinging aplple with blueberries, two of my fav fruits. 🙂 Cool idea. I must try this combo too.
Ha! Thanks, you’ll be happy you did 🙂
Wow this pie is just gorgeous! I can see why you are baking up the second one this week. I love how granny smith apples bake up too, and am getting in a fall mood to start baking with them. Have a great weekend Sarah!
Thank you Julie! Fall can’t come soon enough 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend!
Delicious it makes me long for Fall and apple season. I think the crumble topping made with coconut milk and oil is fantastic. I think I would be eating by the handful.
Thank you! I cannot wait for Fall and apple season 🙂 I was eating it by the handful, haha!
I love oat-based crumbles and your recipe sounds delicious! It’s definitely getting to be that time of year where these are what you are looking for, although I still want to hang on to summer a little longer (and thankfully the weather here is cooperating).
Thanks! I’m just about over summer and ready for the fall season 🙂
I’ve always loved crumble cakes – the crunchy top make it more so beautiful and amazingly delish! Thanks for bringing this at FF table. Have a lovely week ahead. 🙂 xx
Me too! Thank you 🙂
Apples and blueberries?!?!?!? Love this!
Yes!!!
Oh Sarah, this is so delicious. I absolutely love apple and blueberry flavors together. They just go together beautifully. I never thought to add coconut to it, so I can’t wait to make this and try it out.
They go together wonderfully! Coconut oil adds just a subtle richness to the dish. You’ll love it 🙂
I love that this is healthy! I’m a huge fan of all things coconut and am intrigued to use coconut milk in a crumble, love it!
Healthy desserts are my favorite, cause I feel like I can just eat more of them 😉 Definitely try it, you won’t be disappointed.
I loved it! waters my mouth ^^
Thank you 🙂
