Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the Saskatoon berries, granulated sugar, and lemon juice. Gently toss to coat the berries and pour the mixture into a greased 9x9-inch baking dish.
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, brown sugar, rolled oats, melted butter, cinnamon, and salt until crumbly. Ensure that the butter is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Sprinkle the crumble mixture evenly over the berry mixture in the baking dish, covering the berries completely.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the berries are bubbling around the edges.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra treat.
Tips
- For added flavor, consider mixing in a touch of nutmeg or almond extract with the berry mixture.
- You can substitute half of the rolled oats with chopped nuts for an extra crunch.
- If using frozen Saskatoon berries, there’s no need to thaw them; just increase the baking time by a few minutes.
