Ingredients
serves 6
Fruit Mixture:
-
8 cups fresh Berries whatever mix of berries you like
-
⅓ cup sugar
-
1 large lemon, zested and juiced
-
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
-
¼ teaspoon cinnamon
-
pinch of salt
-
1½ Tablespoons cornstarch
Topping:
-
1 cup rolled oats (I use regular but you can use quick-cooking if you want)
-
⅓ cup brown sugar
-
½ cup whole wheat flour (I prefer whole wheat for a richer taste, but you can use regular AP flour)
-
½ cup butter (1 whole stick), cut into slices
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350° F.
Make the fruit mixture:
-
Place the berries in a large bowl.
-
Add the sugar, lemon zest, nutmeg, cinnamon and salt and toss gently.
-
Place the cornstarch and lemon juice in a small jar with a lid and shake well.
-
Pour over the berry mixture and gently toss again until coated.
Spray an 8×8 glass baking dish with cooking spray and add the berry mixture.
Make the crisp topping:
-
In a food processor, add the oatmeal, sugar and flour and pulse until blended.
-
Add the sliced butter and pulse until the mixture is well blended. (If you don’t have a food processor, you will have to do this in a bowl and use two knifes, cutting the butter into the oatmeal mixture until it is well blended.)
Assemble and bake:
-
Scatter the topping over the fruit.
-
Bake for about 45 – 50 minutes, until the topping is crisp and brown and the fruit is bubbling.
-
Remove from oven to let cool and set up a bit until just warm.
-
Serve with vanilla ice cream on top.
