Ingredients

  • 3 cups mixed berries (such as raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine the mixed berries, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the berries evenly. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter to the mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your hands, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until crumbly texture is achieved.
  4. Pour the berry mixture into a 9-inch baking dish or individual ramekins. Spread the crumble mixture evenly over the top of the berries.
  5. Place the dish or ramekins on a baking sheet to catch any potential spills. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the berries are bubbling and the topping is golden brown.
  6. Remove from the oven and allow the berry crumble to cool for a few minutes before serving. This dessert can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
  7. Serve the Ultimate Berry Crumble on its own, or with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra special treat.
