Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups fresh fruit (e.g., apples, berries, or peaches)
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons rolled oats
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 pinch pinch of salt
Instructions
Wash and chop the fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces if necessary. Combine the fruit with 1 tablespoon of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon in a microwave-safe bowl. Stir well and set aside.
In a separate small bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cut the butter into small chunks and add it to the dry mixture. Use your fingers or a fork to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Spread the crumb mixture evenly over the prepared fruit in the microwave-safe bowl.
Microwave on high for 3-5 minutes, checking at the 3-minute mark. The fruit should be bubbly, and the topping should be slightly firm and golden.
Carefully remove the dish from the microwave (it will be hot). Let the fruit crisp cool for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve warm, optionally topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
