Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 cups (sliced, pitted) plums
- 2 cups mixed berries (e.g., blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
- 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 (packed) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter (cold, diced)
- vanilla ice cream or whipped cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish or similar-sized dish.
In a large bowl, combine the sliced plums, mixed berries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Toss gently to evenly coat the fruit.
Pour the fruit mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut the cold diced butter into the flour mixture until it resembles pea-sized crumbs and forms a coarse, crumbly topping.
Sprinkle the crumb topping evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.
Place the baking dish on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit filling is bubbling.
Remove from the oven and let the crisp cool for about 10 minutes to allow the filling to set slightly.
Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
