Pear and Berry Crisp

Serves 8

Ingredients:

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. Line a baking sheet with paper towels; spread frozen berries on baking sheet and set aside for 30 minutes at room temperature so they can thaw.
3. While berries are thawing, make oatmeal topping. Combine ¼ cup flour, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar, light brown sugar, allspice and a pinch of salt in a large bowl. Add oats to bowl; stir. Add butter to bowl; incorporate butter into flour mixture using a pastry blender or using your fingers, until moist and large clumps form. Refrigerate topping.
4. Combine thawed berries, pears, lemon juice, 2 tablespoons flour and 3 tablespoons granulated sugar in a large bowl; stir to combine. Transfer berry mixture to a 2-quart baking dish; sprinkle with chilled topping. Bake for about 45 minutes or until topping is golden and fruit is tender. Cool for 20 minutes before serving.
