Yield serves: 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

for the filling
2 pints blueberries, picked through for stems and crushed berries
5 nectarines, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1-inch chunks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Grated zest of 1 lemon
1/4 cup cornstarch
for the topping
1 1/4 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup packed light or dark brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, cold, cut into pea-size pieces
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • FOR THE FILLING
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the blueberries, nectarines, sugar, lemon zest, and cornstarch.
  • Place the fruit mixture in a wide, shallow baking dish (2 to 2 1/2 quarts) or eight 1-cup ramekins.
  • FOR THE TOPPING
  • In a food processor, combine the flour, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt and pulse.
  • Add the butter and vanilla and pulse, pulse, pulse until the mixture looks dry and crumbly. Add 1 tablespoon water and pulse again until the mixture starts to come together. If the mixture still seems dry, add 1 more tablespoon water and pulse again. Sprinkle the topping over the blueberry mixture.
  • Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the filling is hot and bubbly and the topping is crispy and nicely browned. Serve warm with whipped cream or ice cream.
  • ANNE ALTERNATE
  • Apples, peaches, pears, plums, berries-you can substitute pretty much any fruit or combination of fruit that you like here. Have fun!
