Recipe Guide
- → What fruits work best in this dish?
Mixed berries, peaches, and apples are great choices, but any frozen fruit combination works well.
- → Can I add nuts to the topping?
Yes, adding chopped walnuts or pecans gives a pleasant crunch to the oat topping.
- → How can I make this dish dairy-free?
Substitute the butter with melted coconut oil or a vegan butter alternative.
- → Is it better to use flour or cornstarch for the filling?
Both work as thickeners; flour adds heartiness while cornstarch creates a clearer filling.
- → Can this be prepared ahead of time?
You can assemble it in advance and keep it chilled until baking for convenience.
