Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together quick oats, flour, coconut, wheat germ, salt, vanilla, date sugar, and coconut milk. Set aside.
- In a large pot on the stove, bring fruit and sweetener of choice to a boil. Use juice from canned fruit or add 1 cup of water to the pot.
- In a small container, mix together cornstarch and 1/2 cup water.
- Slowly pour cornstarch slurry into boiling fruit, stirring while pouring. If your fruit has lots of liquid, use the full amount. If your fruit does not have much liquid, use only half of the amount of cornstarch. Continue to cook stirring constantly until no more "milky" look of cornstarch remains and it becomes clear while also becoming thick.
- Transfer thickened fruit to a 9x13 casserole dish. Spoon topping evenly over the top of the thickened fruit.
- Bake for 20-22 minutes, or until topping is beginning to turn golden and fruit is bubbly.
