This recipe for a mixed Berry Crisp is so yummy it needs no introduction.  Just whip it up for dessert tonight, serve with a little vanilla ice cream and enjoy.  It's out of this world!

p.s. A big thank you to Gloria Getzug for inspiring this recipe!


CRISP INGREDIENTS

1  cup flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
7 tablespoons butter cold


BERRY INGREDIENTS

1 1/2 cups blueberries
3 cups raspberries
2 cups blackberries
3 tablespoons flour
1/3 cup sugar



INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat oven to 400°.

In a large baking dish (9 x 11 rectangular pyrex or a QT oval as we used here) mix all berry ingredients and set aside.   Make sure all berries are coated in the sugar and flour mixture.

In a large mixing bowl, combine all the dry ingredients.  Next, cut the butter into the mix using a pastry knife at first and later your hands.  You really need to use your hands to get the right consistency, a kind of flaky dough like mixture. (see photo).

When completely mixed, sprinkle over the berries, covering all but the edges.

Bake uncovered for 40 - 45 minutes or until the crisp topping is lightly browned.  Please note that some of the crisp topping will cook into the berries.

Serve warm over vanilla ice cream -- then try and save some leftovers for yourself tomorrow.
