Mountain Berry Crisp

This Mountain Berry Crisp recipe brings strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries together to create a scrumptious dessert that shows off the berries interesting flavors and textures.

This crisp recipe works with fresh or frozen berries. If fresh berries are in season and available, make it with fresh berries. If it’s being made in the winter or when fresh berries aren’t readily available, make it with frozen berries, which are usually better and more affordable than the “fresh” berries in grocery stores during the middle of winter.

Since both fresh and frozen berries release a lot of liquid during the cooking process, an option, if you prefer a thicker filling, is to add 1 or 2 tsp of corn starch to the fruit when it is being mixed.

Don’t worry about exact measurements for the fruit, a few more strawberries or a few less blueberries aren’t going to matter. What did matter in our testing was making sure to cut the strawberries and blackberries into bite-sized pieces, which helped distribute the fruits’ flavors and textures throughout the crisp.

The crisp can be served on its own, with whip cream or ice cream. It’s particularly delicious with Vanilla Bourbon Ice Cream and Bourbon Brown Sugar Sauce.

• Mountain Berry Crisp crisp can be served on its own, with whip cream, or ice cream.
