Ingredients
Scale
- 5 cups mixed berries
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ½ teaspoon cinnamon
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ¾ cup rolled oats
- ½ cup packed brown sugar (light or dark)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup cold unsalted butter, diced
- Vanilla ice cream, for serving (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease an 8-inch square or 8×11-inch baking dish.
- Place the mixed berries into the prepared dish. Sprinkle granulated sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon over the berries and gently stir to coat.
- In a separate bowl, combine rolled oats, flour, brown sugar, and salt.
- Add diced cold butter to the dry mixture. Use your fingers, pastry cutter, or forks to blend until coarse crumbs form.
- Evenly sprinkle the streusel topping over the berry mixture.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the topping is golden and the berry filling is bubbly and thickened.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
Notes
- Fresh or frozen berries can be used—no need to thaw frozen berries first.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute flour and oats with gluten-free alternatives.
- Customize the fruit mix with peaches or apples for variety.
- Use coconut oil or vegan butter for a dairy-free option.
- Adjust sugar to taste based on the sweetness of your berries.
