Blackberry & Pear Crisp- Recipe!

I made this amazing desert last night. I was super happy that it turned out so good, since it is even pretty healthy too!

My MIL had an insulin reaction last night so we took her dinner. Split pea soup in bread bowls and this Crisp. She loved it too.

So, here is the recipe I made up/was inspired by a few recipes.

Nichole's blackberry & pear crisp:

*Adjust to the size you want to make, I made a small one to try this time.

1 12 oz container of blackberries
5 medium sized pears

Slice pears and cook on medium
Heat with a tbsp of truvia (or regular sugar if you choose), until pears are sift and juicy. Poor over blackberries in baking dish.

Topping:

1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup oatmeal
2 tsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla
6 tbsp of coconut oil (or butter if you choose)

Mix dry ingredients then cut in
butter. Sprinkle or drop on top of fruit mixture. Cook 20 minutes on 350. The juices will be bubbling and the topping will be golden brown.

It's also yummy with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

So, get out there and create!

Experiment in the kitchen my friends, you never know what you will come up with!
