Actually any berry will work in this recipe (even frozen, if you must), but the dark, sweet blackberries are my favorite. Served barely warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, it just doesn't get much better than this.

Time 55m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 cups fresh blackberries, washed and drained well
2 teaspoons lemon juice
⅓ cup white sugar
¾ cup quick cooking oats
⅓ cup flour
⅓ cup packed brown sugar
¼ cup softened butter
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly butter a 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Place berries in large bowl. Pour in lemon juice; sprinkle sugar evenly over berries. Gently stir to combine. Transfer to prepared casserole dish. Gently pat down berries with the back of a spoon and level the surface.
  • Place rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Mix together with a fork until mixture is blended and crumbly, about 1 minute.
  • Distribute crisp mixture over the top of the berries and smooth out with a tip of a fork so all berries are covered.
  • Bake in preheated oven until dark and berries are bubbling, about 45 minutes. Allow crisp to cool somewhat and firm up. Serve warm.

This crisp was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I could fix that by using less sugar next time.

This crisp was a bit too tart for my taste. I think I'll try using a sweeter variety of blackberries next time.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my crisp turned out a bit too runny. I think I might have added too much liquid. I'll try again with a bit less liquid next time.

The crisp was good, but I found the topping to be a bit too sweet for my taste. Next time, I'll try using less sugar or adding some oats to the topping to balance out the sweetness.
