FRUIT CRISP BY HEART

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• For the crisp: Mix together the flour, brown sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Using a pastry blender, 2 knives or a food processor, cut in the butter. Stir in the oats.
• For the fruit: Toss the fruit with the cornstarch, granulated sugar as needed and the lemon zest if using.
• Transfer the fruit mixture to a baking dish and top with the crisp mixture. Bake until the middle is warmed through and the top is crispy and golden brown, 50 to 55 minutes.

MIXED BERRY CRISP (GLUTEN FREE)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Rinse and drain the berries and pick through to remove any stems still attached. If you're using strawberries, slice them into 1/4-inch thick pieces. If you're using particularly large blackberries, slice them in half.
• In a 9 by 9-inch baking dish, mix together the berries, honey, starch, citrus zest and juice. Set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl, stir together the oats, almond meal/flour, sliced almonds (if using), sugar and salt. Mix in the butter and yogurt. Stir until all of the flour is incorporated and the mixture is moistened throughout.
• Dollop spoonfuls of the oat mixture over the filling and use your fingers to break up the mixture until it is evenly distributed (no need to pack it down).
• Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the filling is actively bubbling around the edges and the top is lightly golden. Let the crisp rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Serve with vanilla ice cream (I insist!).

QUICK MICROWAVE FRUIT CRISP

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients except for instant oatmeal or kashi go lean crunch cereal into a 9x9 microwave safe glass casserole dish and microwave for 15 minutes stirring every 5 minutes.
• Take out of microwave after 15 minutes and let stand for a few moments until slightly cooled and beginning to thicken, then top with your choice of kashi go lean crunch cereal or instant oatmeal.
• (just a note - if you choose the oatmeal you may wish to brown it in the oven on broil for a few moments so that it doesn't get instantly soggy - to do this, mix it with some butter and pour onto top of fruit mixture,then put into oven on middle rack and check on regularly until it crisps up nice and golden brown.
• The Kashi is nice if you wish to serve it right away (kashi doesn't re-microwave very nicely so only use if you are eating that same night or re-heat in the oven the next day for a hot dish).
• Add cream or milk and enjoy!
