Ingredients

For the Berry Filling

  • 400 gms (about 3-4 cups) Mixed Berries fresh or frozen
  • 1/4 cup Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Cornflour
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

For the Crisp Topping

  • 1/2 cup Rolled Oats
  • 1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 1/3 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 tsp Cinnamon Powder
  • 1/4 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 cup Unsalted Butter
  • 1/4 cup Chopped Nuts optional

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • In a greased 8x8-inch baking dish, mix the berry filling ingredients: fresh or frozen berries, sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, and vanilla. No need for a separate bowl!
  • In a small bowl, stir together the dry ingredients for the topping—oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  • Pour in the melted butter and mix until crumbly. Stir in chopped nuts if using.
  • Sprinkle the oat crumble topping evenly over the berries.
  • Bake on the center oven rack for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm with vanilla ice cream for the perfect dessert!

Notes

  • Fresh or Frozen Berries: Both work wonderfully! If using fresh berries, you may need to adjust the amount of sweetener depending on how tart the berries are.
  • No Need to Thaw: If using frozen berries, there’s no need to thaw—just mix them directly with the other filling ingredients.
  • Keep It Chunky: Avoid chopping the fruit too finely, especially strawberries, as they can disintegrate during baking and affect the texture of your crisp.
  • Make it Your Own: Try a combination of blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries for a delicious Triple Berry Crisp twist, or switch things up with sliced apples or peaches for a fun seasonal variation.
  • Feel free to substitute part of the flour with almond flour for added nuttiness.
  • Make it vegan by using coconut oil instead of butter.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
