Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish or pie plate.
  2. Peel, core, and slice your choice of fresh fruit (such as apples, peaches, or berries) into bite-sized pieces. Place the fruit in the prepared baking dish.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the uncooked oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
  4. Cut cold butter into small cubes and add to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to mix until the butter is incorporated and the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  5. Spoon the oat topping evenly over the fruit in the baking dish, ensuring all fruit is covered.
  6. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes before serving to allow the fruit juices to thicken slightly.

Note

While the original ingredient list only specified oats, a traditional fruit crisp requires fruit, flour, sugar, butter, and cinnamon for the topping. Adjust fruit quantity based on the size of your baking dish; 4-6 cups of sliced fruit is standard.

For a vegan version, substitute the butter with coconut oil or vegan butter cubes.

This crisp can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving to restore the crisp texture of the topping.

Feel free to add a tablespoon of lemon juice to the fruit to enhance the flavor and prevent browning.
