Easy Paleo/Whole30 Berry Crisp

I started a modified version of Whole30 this month. Modified because I am not keeping to the strict “no form of a baked good” idea. I get why it is suggested but for my goals I am fine with a few baked goods. I am not going overboard by any means but every once in a while I want a dessert like…a berry crisp. I came up with this easy recipe when one of those “once in a whiles” hit. If you are doing strict Whole30 this may not be for you but you should definitely try it at some point. This makes 2 portions but I usually end up eating half and then eating the other half a few hours later. You can be nice and share with someone if you want or you could divide it into two ramekins. One for now and one for later!

To stay out of trouble with the Whole30 guys I am just gonna call this paleo but you and I will know 🙂

Here is what you will need…

This is Whole30 compliant in terms of ingredients but if you are doing strict no “baked goods” then wait and try this later.
