Servings: 9 servings
Ingredients
Filling Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cups fresh raspberries
- 1 ½ cups fresh blackberries
- 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
- 3 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
Crumble Ingredients:
- ½ cup whole wheat pastry flour
- ¾ cup rolled oats
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ cup butter diced small
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl Whisk together honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract and cornstarch.
- Add berries and gently toss to combine until the berries are coated in the honey mixture. Transfer to an 8x8” baking dish.
- In a medium bowl combine whole wheat pastry flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, salt and cinnamon. Whisk together until combined well.
- Add diced butter and mix well using your hands until the mixture is fully combined with the butter and crumbly (should resemble wet sand!).
- Sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the fruit.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes until fruit is bubbling and topping is golden brown. Berry filling will thicken as it cools. Cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- Fresh or frozen berries work. Use frozen berries instead, or use any other fruit that you'd like. Mixed berries give the crumble a balance of sweet and tart flavor, but you can also use just one type of berry if preferred. This recipe works with sliced strawberries, peaches or even apples.
- Let the crumble rest. This ensures that the filling thickens before serving.
- Bake until the berry filling is bubbling. It should bubble around the edges and the crumble topping should be golden brown.
- Use cold butter for the topping. This ensures the best crumble texture.
