Nectarine and Blueberry Crisp

Ingredients

• Unsalted butter (1/2 cup, cold and cubed)
• Salt (1/4 teaspoon)
• Cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
• Brown sugar (1/2 cup, packed)
• Rolled oats (1 cup)
• All-purpose flour (1/2 cup)
• Cornstarch (1 tablespoon)
• Granulated sugar (1/4 cup)
• Lemon juice (1 tablespoon)
• Blueberries (2 cups, fresh)
• Nectarines (4, pitted and sliced)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced nectarines, fresh blueberries, lemon juice, granulated sugar, and cornstarch. Toss the fruit gently until everything is well coated.
3. Carefully transfer the fruit mixture into a 9-inch square baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
4. In a separate bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt until well combined.
5. Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
6. Evenly sprinkle the oat topping over the fruity mixture in the baking dish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the fruit is bubbling and the topping is a beautiful golden brown.
8. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
9. Serve warm, with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top for an extra indulgent treat.
