Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the fresh blackberries, granulated sugar, all-purpose flour, lemon juice, and ground cinnamon. Toss carefully to ensure the blackberries are evenly coated without crushing them.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the old-fashioned rolled oats, brown sugar, and remaining all-purpose flour. Add the cold cubed butter and use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend the mixture until it resembles a crumbly texture with small pea-sized pieces.
4. Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish and evenly spread the blackberry mixture across the bottom.
5. Generously sprinkle the oat topping over the blackberries, ensuring an even distribution.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the blackberries are bubbling and the topping is a lovely golden brown.
7. Remove from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes to set before serving.
8. Serve warm, topped with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast of temperatures and textures.
