Mixed Fruit Crumble
2 cups frozen mixed fruit – I used a mixture of strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, blueberries and peaches
1 pie crust for a 9-inch pie pan
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
½ cup oatmeal – pulsed in the food processor
¼ - 1/3 cup brown sugar
¼ cup chopped pecans
¼ cup cold butter
Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Mix sugar and cornstarch together and pour over fruit. Toss well and set aside.
Roll out pie dough to fit in the pie pan. Seal and crimp edges. Pour sugared fruit into pie shell.
Combine oatmeal, brown sugar, nuts and butter into a medium sized bowl. Blend with pastry blender or fork until crumbly. Sprinkle over fruit.
Bake crumble for about 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and mixture is bubbly.
Here's what I started with. You can use
fresh fruit, of course or any combo of fruit.
I
used regular rolled oats in this but the 1
minute kind would work. I
pulsed the oats
in the food processor to make them a little finer.
Blend the oats, brown sugar, butter
and pecans with a pastry blender.
Roll
out your pie dough and place it in the pan.
Combine the cornstarch and
sugar and mix it
with the fruit. Pour the fruit mixture into your
prepared pie pan then sprinkle with the topping.
Bake it up and dig in!!
