Super easy simple berry crisp that lets the berry flavor shine!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 5 1/2 to 6 cups berries (at least two cups should be halved or quartered strawberries)
  • 2/3 cup sugar
  • 3 to 3 1/2 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca (if berries are frozen or very juicy, use the 3 1/2 tablespoons)
  • zest of 1 small lemon
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup quick-cooking oats
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened at room temperature
  • Vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream, optional

Instructions

In a large bowl, combine the berries. Mix together sugar the 2/3 cup of sugar, tapioca and lemon zest; sprinkle over berries and toss gently. Pour into a greased 11×7-inch or equivalent. baking dish; let stand for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, make the topping, in a small bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugar, and butter. Sprinkle over berry mixture when the 15 minutes is up.

Bake at 350° until filling is bubbly and topping is golden brown, 45-50 minutes. Serve warm and, if desired, with vanilla ice cream or sweetened whipped cream.

Notes:

  • Strawberries are specifically called for to add some bulk; without them, using only small berries, the berry portion will be very thin.
  • A mixture of strawberries, raspberries, blueberries and blackberries is particularly delicious
  • If using frozen blueberries, use without thawing to avoid discoloring the topping; may need to bake a little longer.
