Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed berries with the fresh lemon juice, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar and cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the berries evenly. Set aside.
In another bowl, prepare the crisp topping by mixing together the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and 1/2 cup of the remaining granulated sugar.
Add the melted butter, cinnamon, vanilla extract, and salt-free baking powder to the dry mix, stirring until the mixture is crumbly.
Transfer the berry mixture to an 8x8-inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle the oat mixture over the berry layer, covering the fruit completely.
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berry mixture is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream if desired.
