Rhubarb Berry Crisp

Ingredients:


· 2 cups fresh or frozen fruit (that one 16 oz bag if you get it in the freezer section)
o (I used 1 cup of chopped rhubarb and 1 cup frozen mixed berries)
· ¾ cup all-purpose flour
o (I used whole wheat flour)
· ¾ cup packed brown sugar
· ¾ cup old-fashioned rolled oats
· ½ tsp ground cinnamon
· ½ cup cold unsalted butter (1 stick), cut into small pieces
· ½ cup chopped walnuts (optional)


Instructions:
· Heat the oven to 375 degrees
· Place fruit in the bottom of an 8-inch square (or round) baking dish
· Combine the flour, brown sugar, oats, and cinnamon in a medium-size mixing bowl
· Cut the butter into the flour mixture with a pastry cutter or your clean fingers until the
mixture forms large crumbs.
· Stir in the walnuts if you wanted them (which I left out :o)
· Sprinkle the mixture over the berries in the baking dish
· Bake until the topping is browned and berries are bubbly – about 40 min’s (you can carefully
poke a fork in to make sure the fruit is soft (especially if you are using rhubarb)
· Serve warm with vanilla ice cream
