Berry Crisp



I made this little dessert on Friday night when we were craving something sweet--amazingly all the ingredients were already on hand! This is a very easy and quick dessert if you're looking to whip something up in a hurry or just craving a semi-healthy sweet. We ate it with Breyers (of course!) vanilla bean ice cream and a glass of Vhino Verde. Muy delicioso!

Berry Filling: 
2 cups fresh raspberries
2 cups frozen blueberries
1/4 cup brown sugar
3 tbsp. flour
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
Crisp:
1/2 cup flour
2 packets uncooked instant oatmeal
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup chopped pecans

Berry filling: Mix berries, brown sugar, flour and cinnamon in an 8 inch square pan.



Crisp: Cut butter into dry ingredients and put topping on berry mixture. Top with nuts. Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until bubbly and slightly browned. I also put it under the broiler for about 1-2 minutes before taking it out to completely brown the top--careful though because the nuts on top will burn quick if you don't watch it!
