🥧 Classic Bubbling Fruit Crisp (Grandma-Style)
🍎 Ingredients
Fruit filling
4–5 cups sliced fruit (apples, peaches, berries, or a mix)
2–3 tbsp sugar (more if fruit isn’t sweet)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp cornstarch (optional, for thickening)
Crisp topping
½ cup oats
½ cup flour
⅓ cup brown sugar
½ tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
¼ cup butter (cold, cut into bits)
👩🍳 How to Make It
Heat oven to 190°C / 375°F.
Toss fruit with sugar, lemon, cinnamon, and cornstarch. Spread in a baking dish.
Mix topping: oats, flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt. Cut in butter with fingers until crumbly.
Sprinkle on top of fruit.
Bake 35–45 minutes until:
the top is golden
the filling is bubbling at the edges (Grandma Bev approved ✔️)
🧈 Grandma Bev Energy Tips
If it’s bubbling over the sides? Even better. Put foil under the dish.
Let it cool 10 minutes so it thickens (if you can wait).
Serve with vanilla ice cream or custard for max cozy vibes.
If you want, I can give you:
a savory bubbling-at-the-edges recipe (like chicken pot pie), or
a one-pan lazy version for when you don’t feel like measuring anything.
