Servings: 6
Ingredients
1 cup rolled oats
¾ cup brown sugar
¼ cup baking sugar
¾ cup all-purpose flour, divided
½ cup butter, softened
4 cups fresh blackberries
Lemon Zest
Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine the dry ingredients (oats, brown sugar, white sugar, ground cinnamon, and ½ cup flour) in a bowl. Work in butter with a pastry cutter or fork until mixture is moistened and crumbly.
- Spread blackberries into a baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup flour and toss well to coat. Zest the rind of one lemon and mix in. I sometimes like to add in a little lemon juice, too, for an extra kick. Or if you're really wanting to add a little more sweetness, a little bit of vanilla extract can go along way in the crisp filling. Sprinkle oat mixture over top.
- Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes.
- When the crisp cools, top with your favorite vanilla ice cream or heavy cream and serve!
