Author
Dori Jacobs

Ingredients

6 cups mixed berries cut into bite-sized pieces
1 1/2 cups flour
2-3 Tbsp flour
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar packed
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup quick cooking oatmeal
1 stick butter cold and cubed in 1/2 inch pieces

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter a 9x13 casserole.

Filling

Place mixed berries in a large mixing bowl. Add 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar and 2 Tbsp. of the flour. Gently mix and let sit for 5 min. If a lot of juice forms add 1 more tablespoon of flour. Pour fruit into baking dish and smooth top.

Topping

Combine 1 1/2 cups flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup brown sugar, salt, oatmeal and cold butter, diced into a large mixing bowl fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on low speed until butter is pea size and mixture is crumbly. Sprinkle evenly on top of berries. Bake for 1 hour, until top is browned and crisp and juices are bubbly.

Notes

The fruit I used was mostly blueberries and blackberries with a few raspberries, strawberries and peaches included. Most of the fruit was fresh, however, frozen works well also.

I recommend cooking with a pan or foil under baking dish in case juices bubble over.
