This Cranberry Blueberry Crisp recipe is packed full of flavor and ready for the oven in less than 15 minutes! Gluten free and vegan, and a delicious holiday treat that everyone will love.
This cranberry blueberry crisp is a seasonal delicious dessert.
I love fresh cranberries this time of year and they are perfect for crisps (not just for cranberry sauce!)
This cranberry blueberry crisp is my new fave November dessert.
It’s full of juicy flavor and the prep work is a breeze (ready to bake in less than 15 minutes!)
how to make cranberry blueberry crisp
Step 1: mix together the filling ingredients in a bowl: fresh cranberries, frozen blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, salt, and cinnamon. Stir several times over the course of 5-10 minutes, or until sugar and cornstarch stick to the fruit.
Step 2: Add all ingredients for crisp topping to a bowl: brown sugar, pecan crumbs, oat flour, rolled oats, salt, coconut oil, and vegan butter. Use a spoon to combine. The mixture should resemble wet sand.
Step 3: Use a dish of choice and pour in the filling (I used a 9″ pie pan). Add the crisp topping evenly over the filling.
Step 4: Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes, or until bubbly and crisp is browned. Serve hot with vanilla ice cream.
My husband is a huge fan of my apple crisp recipe but one bite of this and he couldn’t stop saying how much he loved it.
Fresh cranberries add so much flavor to this crisp and every bite is sweet with bursts of juicy cranberries.
Does that not look dreamy?
I had two bowls yesterday and already craving more!
I also made this for a family Thanksgiving event and everyone was raving about it.
No crisp is complete without a scoop of creamy vanilla ice cream on the side.
This is seriously such a beautiful dessert. Impress your family with this at Thanksgiving!
It was one of our favorite vegetarian thanksgiving recipes last year.

I would not make it in advance, it is best fresh!
Soooo good. I was looking for a recipe to use up extra cranberries and blueberries when I came upon your recipe. So glad I tried it.
I was given a big bag of shelled walnuts and used them in place of the pecans. Worked out great. Also used all purpose flour and 2 teaspoons of melted butter in place of coconut oil. This deserves 5 stars.
1. Can I use both frozen cranberries and frozen blueberries?
2. Can I use regular flour if gluten is not an issue?
Yes and yes!
Would i be able to omit or possibly swap the pecans for something else? More oats perhaps? Thanks in advance!
You could sub out the crisp topping for the one in this recipe! It uses all oats and oat flour. Hope that helps! https://buildyourbite.com/vegan-blueberry-peach-crisp/
Whole family loved it at Thanksgiving!
Can if lip the fruit and use fresh blueberries and frozen cranberries??
I haven’t tried it, but I think it could work!
This was so so tasty. A huge hit with our family.
So glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Looks delicious but oats contain gluten
Oats do not contain gluten. Oats are inherently gluten free, but can be cross contaminated. You simply need to purchase oats that are certified gluten free if you are concerned 🙂
That looks so good! Cranberry and blueberry sounds like a perfect combo!
Thanks Melanie!
