Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh cherries (pitted)
- 2 cups apples (peeled, cored, and sliced)
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup brown sugar (packed)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter (cold, cubed)
- 1 scoop per serving vanilla ice cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cherries, apples, and blueberries.
Add granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice to the fruit mixture, stirring to evenly coat the fruits. Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In another mixing bowl, prepare the crisp topping by combining the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Add the cubed butter to the topping mixture and use a pastry cutter or your hands to work the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture becomes crumbly.
Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling.
Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat.
