Ingredients
  • 1 cup Quaker Oats, uncooked
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 375ðF (190ðC). Lightly grease a 9-inch baking dish or pie plate.
  2. 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. 3
    In a medium bowl, combine the uncooked oats, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon.
  4. 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. 5
    Spoon the oat topping evenly over the fruit in the baking dish, ensuring all fruit is covered.
  6. 6
    Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit juices are bubbling around the edges.
  7. 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.
