Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh or frozen cherries (pitted)
- 2 cups fresh or frozen mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc.)
- 0.5 cups granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 0.75 cups all-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups rolled oats
- 0.5 cups brown sugar (packed)
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold)
- vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick cooking spray, and set it aside.
In a large bowl, combine the cherries and mixed berries. Add the granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss gently to coat the fruit evenly and pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Stir until well mixed.
Cut the cold butter into small cubes and add it to the oat mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish, making sure to cover the fruit as much as possible.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling at the edges.
Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, if desired.
