It’s berry season—finally! If you’ve got a crisper drawer full of strawberries, blueberries, and more, VeguKate founder nutritionist Kate Gavlick has the perfect way to use them: this low-sugar, vegan dessert starring fresh fruit and topped with a pistachio-cardamom crumble.

“My favorite thing about this recipe is that it can be made with practically whatever you have on hand, which makes for a quick dessert and a fun way to entertain a crowd all summer long,” says Gavlick. Plus, it’s loaded with antioxidants from the fruits (she suggests using whatever looks good at the market—strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, you name it!), healthy fats from the coconut oil and pistachios, and fiber from the oats.

It's the perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth after dinner—but no judgment if you wind up devouring it for breakfast.
