Mixed Berry Crisp

Hi all. Did this post come after midnight? Maybe. Was that because I was having a great Sunday hanging out with my family? Definitely. Don’t worry – Erik informed me I still have 4 hours (ish) Alaska time before this is late.

Start by combining the berries, cornstarch, brown sugar, lemon juice and salt in a medium bowl.

Spread into an 8×8 pan sprayed with cooking spray.

In a large bowl, stir together the oats, almonds, almond meal, brown sugar and salt. Sprinkle in the olive oil and stir until combined.

Sprinkle the topping over the fruit.

Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes. Cover with tin foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely on a wire rack.

And that’s it. Easiest fruit crisp you’ve ever made. You could sub in literally anything for the berries.

Enjoy!
