Ingredients

For the filling:

  • 2 cups cherries halved, stems and pits removed
  • 2 cups blueberries stems removed
  • 1 cup raspberries
  • 1 cup blackberries
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • Zest and juice of half of a lemon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the topping:

  • 1.5 cups old fashioned oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar lightly packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup cold unsalted butter cut into cubes
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F and prepare a 2-3qt baking baking dish by spraying with cooking spray or greasing with butter. You can use a square 2qt dish, a 9x13 dish, or several ramekins/muffin tins. Fruit crisps are very easy to customize to what you have at home, so use whatever cooking vessel that works best for you. You can also use a cast iron pan!
  • In a medium bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the topping.
  • Using a fork, pastry cutter or your hands, break apart the chunks of butter and combine with the dry ingredients until the mixture is sandy.
  • When the mix is finished, put it in the refrigerator while you make the filling. You want the butter to be cold when you bake it.
  • In a separate bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the filling. Toss together until it is evenly combined. It's okay if someone of your berries break apart while you are mixing!
  • Pour your berries into your prepared baking dish. If you are using ramekins or a muffin tin, you want your berry mix to fill about 2/3 to 3/4 of the way up.
  • Remove your topping from the refrigerator and cover the berries with topping.
  • Bake in the oven for about 45-50 minutes, until the berries are bubbling and the top is golden brown all over. If you are using the ramekins or muffin tin, bake for about 25 minutes.
  • Broil on high for 1-2 minutes to really brown the topping and make it crunchy.
  • Serve topped with vanilla ice cream as dessert or over yogurt for breakfast!
