If you love the warm, comforting taste of juicy berries wrapped in a buttery, golden topping, you’re going to fall head over heels for this easy Blackberry Crisp. With a sweet-tart filling and a cinnamon-kissed oat topping, this classic dessert is as simple as it is satisfying.
Blackberries
Granulated sugar
Cornstarch
Lemon juice
Vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
Old-fashioned oats
All-purpose flour
Brown sugar
Ground cinnamon
Salt
Unsalted butter
In a medium bowl, toss the blackberries with sugar, cornstarch, lemon juice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Stir gently until combined, then pour into a greased 8x8-inch baking dish.
In another bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Add the cold cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Sprinkle the crisp topping evenly over the blackberries. Bake in a preheated oven at 375°F for 35–40 minutes, or until the top is golden and the berries are bubbling around the edges.
