Ingredients

Fruit Mixture

  • 1 ½ cups fresh blackberries
  • 1 ½ cups fresh raspberries
  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup white sugar

Crisp Topping

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups packed brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 ½ cups cold butter, cubed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit mixture: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the fresh blackberries, raspberries, and blueberries with ¼ cup of white sugar. Toss carefully to coat the berries without crushing them to maintain their shape and texture during baking.
  2. Make the crisp topping: In another large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, packed brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and ground nutmeg until evenly combined. Add the cold cubed butter to the mixture and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  3. Assemble the crisp: Pour the berry mixture into a prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly. Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the top, covering all the berries to form the crisp topping.
  4. Bake the crisp: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish on the middle rack and bake for about 45-50 minutes or until the topping is golden brown and the berry juices are bubbling around the edges.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving. This dessert is delicious warm and can be served with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream if desired.

Notes

  • Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor and texture.
  • Ensure the butter is cold when making the topping to achieve a crumbly texture.
  • You can substitute brown sugar with coconut sugar for a richer taste and lower glycemic index.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated and gently reheated before serving.
  • For a gluten-free version, substitute all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend and ensure oats are certified gluten-free.
