Have You Made Berry Berry Crunch?

Berry Berry Crunch

 6 cups of frozen mixed berries (2 12-ounce packages) unthawed

½ cup of sugar

3 tablespoons of flour   

1 tablespoon of lemon juice   

2 tablespoon melted butter

Topping

1 cup of old-fashioned oats                                                  

¾ cup of flour

1 cup of brown sugar                                                       

1 teaspoon cinnamon

½ teaspoon ginger                                                             

¼ teaspoon nutmeg

¼ teaspoon of salt

8 tablespoons of chilled unsalted butter — cut into cubes

 

Preheat oven to 375°

 

Directions

Combine the unthawed berries, ½ cup sugar, 3 tablespoons flour, butter and the lemon juice in large bowl. Stir the mixture thoroughly and set aside while you prepare the topping.

Topping: Combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, spices and salt in a medium bowl. Add the butter cubes and incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients with your fingertips. The topping should have the texture of wet sand and form into moist clumps. Transfer the berry mixture to a 9” pie pan. Sprinkle the topping over the berries. Bake the crisp for about 1 hour. The juices will be bubbly—check the crisp after 40 minutes or so to make sure the juices aren’t bubbling over (if they look like they might, slide a cookie sheet under the pie pan). Yield: 8 servings
