Warm, bubbling fruit filling topped with a golden, crumbly oat crust — this dessert is the kind of thing that makes your kitchen smell absolutely incredible. Fresh plums get tossed with grated ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, and maple syrup before baking down into a jammy, fragrant filling that's equal parts cozy and sophisticated. The topping layers rolled oats, almond flour, and sliced almonds with coconut oil and a double hit of cardamom, creating a crisp that's nutty, lightly sweet, and satisfying in every bite. Arrowroot starch does the quiet work of thickening the juices so the filling sets up beautifully rather than turning watery. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of celery and celery derivatives, so there's no label-scanning or substitution gymnastics required — just straightforward, wholesome cooking. It's the kind of crowd-pleasing bake that works just as well on a weeknight as it does at a dinner party, especially with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the plum wedges, 3 tbsp maple syrup, fresh ginger, 1/2 tsp cardamom, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and arrowroot starch. Toss until the plums are evenly coated, then spread them in an even layer in the prepared baking dish.
