Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/4 cup canola oil

2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

3 pounds fresh apples or pears

1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries, blackberries,

or cranberries -- see note

1 cup rolled oats

1/2 cup whole wheat flour

1/3 cup organic granulated sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/8 teaspoon salt

 

Rub a baking dish with 1 teaspoon of the oil. Set aside. Preheat the oven to

400F.

 

Place the lemon juice in a large bowl. Discard the cores of the apples or

pears, and coarsely chop the fruit, tossing it with the lemon juice as you go.

 

Add the berries to the apples and toss to combine well. Transfer the mixture to

the oiled baking dish, creating an even layer in which the berries are well

distributed.

 

Place the rolled oats in a blender and grind to a coarse meal consistency. In a

bowl, combine the ground oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir to

combine well, then drizzle in the remaining oil about a tablespoon at a time,

using your fingers to rub the oil into the dry ingredients until it is well

incorporated and the mixture has a moist crumb consistency.

 

Distribute the oat mixture evenly over the fruit and shake the dish so some of

the topping settles into the fruit. Bake for40 to 45 minutes, until browned and

bubbly.

NOTES : This crisp is a good fall or winter dessert, especially when served

warm. It is delicious just as it comes from the oven, or you can dress it up

with Creamy Vanilla Sauce. If you love nuts, combine some chopped walnuts,

almonds, or pecans with the fruit mixture before adding the crumb topping.

Note: If using frozen berries, place them in a colander and rinse briefly under

warm water to melt off ant ice crystals before adding them to the dish.
