Dairy Free Dark Chocolate & Almond Baked Plums

Warm, jammy plums topped with a crunchy dark chocolate and almond crumble — this dessert feels indulgent in the best possible way, and it comes together with just a handful of wholesome ingredients. The natural sweetness of ripe plums deepens as they roast, their juices bubbling up around the edges of the dish in a way that looks almost too good to be true. Coconut oil stands in for butter throughout both the plum base and the crumble topping, so every element stays completely free of dairy without any compromise on richness or texture. The topping itself is a little magic trick — chopped almonds, almond flour, maple syrup, and roughly chopped 70% dark chocolate clump together into a rough, nutty crumble that bakes up golden and slightly crisp. A pinch of sea salt and a whisper of ground ginger in the topping push the whole thing into genuinely sophisticated territory. Finish with an optional drizzle of honey and serve it straight from the baking dish while everything is still warm and fragrant. It's the kind of effortless, crowd-pleasing dessert that makes people assume you spent far more time in the kitchen than you actually did.
