Yield Makes 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

For filling:
6 lb seedless grapes (preferably a mix of red and green; 4 quarts)
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 cup Cognac or other brandy
3 tablespoons cornstarch
For topping:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
1 stick (1/2 cup) cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup coarsely chopped pecans
Accompaniment: crème fraîche, vanilla ice cream, or lightly sweetened whipped cream

Steps:

  • Make filling:
  • Toss grapes with sugar, lemon juice, and cinnamon in a wide 6- to 8-quart heavy pot. Bring to a boil, covered, over moderate heat, stirring occasionally. Continue to boil, covered, stirring occasionally, until grapes begin to burst, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Transfer grapes with a slotted spoon to a colander set over a bowl and drain 15 minutes, then return juices in bowl to pot.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F. Boil juices, uncovered, until syrupy and reduced to about 2 cups, 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Stir together Cognac and cornstarch until smooth and whisk into grape syrup. Boil, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Stir grapes into syrup, then spoon filling into a 3-quart shallow baking or gratin dish.
  • Make topping while juices are reducing:
  • Pulse together flour, brown sugar, oats, butter, cinnamon, and salt in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal. Transfer to a bowl and stir in pecans.
  • Bake crisp:
  • Sprinkle topping evenly over filling and bake in middle of oven until topping is golden brown and filling is bubbling, about 20 minutes.
