If I were a fruit, I would definitely be a strawberry. There's something about the way it looks and smells that draws me to it. Wild Berry Crisp menu is an assortment of different berries that you can find in the market, topped with a crumbled dough, baked to perfection and served warm, with ice cream as an option. This dessert is fairly easy to make since the only tool you will need is your hands.

So what are you waiting for? Wash your hands and let's get started!



You will need:


For the filling:
2      cups               fresh strawberries, hulled and halved
2      cup                assorted berries (blueberries, blackberries, raspberries)
1/2   cup                granulated sugar

For the topping:
1      cup                all-purpose flour
1/2   cup                old-fashioned rolled oats
1/3   cup                sugar
1/3   cup                brown sugar
1/4   tsp                 salt
1/2   cup                unsalted butter, cubed

Here's how:


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, combine the strawberries, assorted berries, and sugar.
    Toss to mix well.
3. Prepare the topping: In another bowl, combine the flour, oats, sugars, and salt. Add the cubed butter and
    work in with the flour using a fork until it resembles a sandy mixture with pea-size particles.
4. Pour the filling into a baking dish then sprinkle the crumb mixture evenly on top.
5. Bake the berry crisp in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Transfer to a wire
    rack to cool. Serve them warm with ice cream if desired.




Note:


Can't find fresh berries? This recipe works with the frozen kind too. Add the sugar and mix. Allow to thaw slightly.
