Since I had an ginormous amount of blackberries left over from our pickin’ trip week before last, I decided to use them for a nice little Sunday afternoon treat.
This came out so lovely… warm and tart (and sweet, at the same time!). You can totally change this up with other fruits. These are just the ones I had on hand.
Peach & Blackberry Crisp
Adapted from: ‘Blueberry Crisp’ in Longaberger’s Fresh From the Pantry – Recipes for Every Day
4 cups blueberries (I used 2 c peaches & 2 c blackberries, both fresh)
2 tbsp water
3/4 c flour
1 c sugar or packed brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 c (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
Extra brown sugar to sprinkle on top before baking
Place the blueberries and water in a buttered 8- or 9-inch deep baking dish. Mix the flour, sugar, cinnamon and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter until crumbly. Spread over the blueberries. Sprinkle a little brown sugar on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown. Serve with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream. Serves 6 to 8.

Oh my… last night at my Wolfgang Puck dinner event, a friend brought a peach & blueberry cobbler. It was amazing… so I have no doubt in my mind pairing peach & blackberry would be outstanding!

I made one of these over the weekend, too! Your topping looks better, though — the one I used also had rolled oats, and it was a little chewier than I would have liked. Yours looks fantastic.
