Irresistible Mixed Fruit Crisp with Oats and Spice

Ingredients

- For the fruit filling:
- 2 cups blueberries
- 2 large apples, peeled, cored, and sliced
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup cherries, pitted and halved
- 2 peaches, pitted and sliced
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon allspice
- 1/8 teaspoon cloves

- For the crisp topping:
- 1 cup oats
- 3/4 cup flour
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts)
- 1/2 cup butter, melted

Instructions

1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

2. Prepare the Fruit Filling
In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, apples, strawberries, cherries, and peaches. Add sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and cloves. Toss gently to coat the fruit evenly.

3. Arrange the Fruit
Transfer the fruit mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

4. Make the Crisp Topping
In a separate bowl, mix the oats, flour, brown sugar, and chopped nuts. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture becomes crumbly.

5. Assemble the Crisp
Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the fruit filling, covering the top completely.

6. Bake
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit mixture is bubbling.

7. Cool and Serve
Allow the crisp to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm, optionally with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream.
