Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F and grease a 9-inch baking dish.

  3. Transfer the fruit mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it out in an even layer.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix together the oats, flour, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt.
  5. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, work the cold butter into the oat mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
  7. Bake the crisp for 40-45 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
  8. Allow the crisp to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
