Ingredients
  

2 cups seedless watermelon, diced

1 cup granola (your choice – almond, honey, or coconut)

1/2 cup shredded coconut, unsweetened

1/4 cup honey or agave syrup

1/4 cup almond butter or peanut butter

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Juice of 1 lime

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Watermelon: Start by dicing the watermelon into bite-sized cubes and placing them in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle lime juice over the diced watermelon to enhance flavor and prevent browning.

    Make the Crisp Base: In a separate bowl, combine the granola, shredded coconut, honey or agave syrup, almond butter, and cinnamon. Mix well until all the dry ingredients are evenly coated.

      Layer the Crisp: In a serving dish or individual dessert bowls, create a layer of the watermelon at the bottom. Next, top it with a generous layer of the granola mixture.

        Repeat Layers: If you have enough ingredients, repeat the layering process until you run out, finishing with a layer of the granola mixture on top for that delightful crunch.

          Chill (Optional): For an extra-refreshing treat, let the assembled crisp chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to meld the flavors.

            Serve: Garnish the top with fresh mint leaves if desired. Scoop and enjoy this light yet satisfying no-bake dessert!
