• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For The Crisp:

• 1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) cold salted butter, cut into small pieces, plus more for greasing the dish
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2/3 cup rolled oats
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar

• Dash of kosher salt

For The Whipped Cream:

How To Make Pioneer Woman Fruit Crisp

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by heating your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Prepare the Berry Mixture: In a medium bowl, mix the raspberries and strawberries with granulated sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined and set aside.
3. Prepare the Crisp: Grease an 8-inch square baking dish with butter. In a large bowl or food processor, combine the cold butter pieces, flour, rolled oats, granulated sugar, brown sugar, chopped pecans, and a dash of salt. Cut together with a pastry cutter or pulse in the food processor until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Assemble and Bake: Press half of the crisp mixture into the bottom of the greased baking dish. Evenly spread the berry mixture over the pressed crisp layer. Sprinkle the remaining crisp mixture over the berries. Bake in the preheated oven until the topping is golden brown, about 45 minutes. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
5. Make the Whipped Cream: While the crisp cool, add the heavy cream and granulated sugar to a chilled mixing bowl. Using a mixer with chilled beaters, whip the mixture until soft peaks form.

Recipe Tips

• Cold Butter is Best: Make sure the butter is cold when you mix it into the flour. This will make your crisp topping crunchy.
• Choose Good Berries: Use fresh, ripe berries for the best taste and texture in your crisp.
• Let Berries Set: After mixing berries with sugar and cornstarch, wait a few minutes before you bake them. This helps the filling get thick and nice.
• Butter Your Dish: Don’t forget to spread butter in your baking dish first. It keeps everything from sticking and makes serving easier.
• Cold Tools for Cream: Put your mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge before you whip the cream. It makes the cream whip up faster and stay fluffy.

What To Serve With Fruit Crisp

Fruit Crisp goes great with vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, whipped cream, and a bit of cinnamon. You can also have it with coffee, sweet sparkling wine, fresh berries, and mint leaves for a really tasty dessert.

How To Store Fruit Crisp

• Keep it in the fridge: Let the fruit crisp cool down, then cover it with plastic wrap or put it in a container with a lid. It can stay in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
• Freeze for later: If you want to keep it for longer, wrap it well with foil and put it in a freezer bag or a container that’s good for the freezer. It can stay frozen for up to 2 months. Remember to thaw it in the fridge before you heat it up again.

How To Reheat Leftover Fruit Crisp

• In the oven: Heat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Put the fruit crisp in a dish for the oven and cover it with foil. Heat it for 15-20 minutes until it’s warm all through.
• In the microwave: Put some fruit crisp in a dish that can go in the microwave. Heat it on high for 1-2 minutes until it’s warm.
• In the air fryer: Put the fruit crisp in a container that fits in the air fryer. Heat it at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes until it’s hot.
