Ingredients
  

Fruit Bottom:
  • 1 can 21 oz apple pie filling
  • 2 cups mixed berries fresh or frozen
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour approximately — no need to measure exactly

Crisp Topping:
  • 1 stick ½ cup butter, melted
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup quick oats

  2. Add 2 cups of mixed berries on top of the apple filling.
  3. Generously sprinkle flour over the fruit (about ¼ cup), then sprinkle brown sugar over that (about ¼–⅓ cup). Mix everything together and spread evenly in the pan.
  4. In a medium bowl, melt butter. Add flour, oats, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix until large crumbles form.
  5. Spread crumble topping evenly over the fruit mixture.
  6. Bake uncovered at 350°F for 45–55 minutes, until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling.
  7. Cool 10–15 minutes before serving. Best served warm with vanilla ice cream.

Notes

Fresh or frozen berries both work — no need to thaw frozen berries first. For a thicker topping, you can double the topping recipe (this is what Stephanie does!). Leftovers keep covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat in the microwave or in a 300° oven uncovered.
