Ingredients
- 4 cups Mixed berries
- 3/4 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tbsp Cornstarch
- 1 tbsp Lemon juice
- 6 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1/2 cup All-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup Chopped pecans
- 4 scoops Vanilla ice cream
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine 4 cups mixed berries, 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tbsp cornstarch, and 1 tbsp lemon juice; stir until sugar dissolves and berries are coated.
- Step 2: Transfer berry mixture to a 9x13 inch baking dish and spread evenly. In a separate bowl, combine 6 tbsp unsalted butter (melted), 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/4 cup chopped pecans; stir until crumbly.
- Step 3: Sprinkle the oat mixture evenly over the berries, pressing gently to form a crumble layer. Bake for 40-45 minutes until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
- Step 4: Let cool for 15 minutes before serving with 4 scoops vanilla ice cream. The contrast of hot crumble and cold ice cream creates the perfect 'frostbitten' experience.
