Gluten Free Fruit Crisps



What to do when you have orchards and berry bushes ripe with fruit? Most people would bake a pie - but that gets more complicated when dealing with gluten intolerance.  The easiest and fastest way to enjoy a fruity dessert is to make a simple crisp. This recipe has been tweaked slightly from the Food Network's Mix & Match Crumble. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes-and-cooking/mix-and-match-crumbles/index.html

Ingredients

1 cup of rolled oats
3/4 cup of nuts
1/4 cup of brown sugar
5 tbs butter softened

Filling
1/2 cup sugar
4 cups of ripe fruit 
2 tbs corn starch


Directions:

Grind nuts and then mix oats and brown sugar. Mix the dry ingredients with softened butter.  In a separate bowl mix fruit with sugar and cornstarch. Next, grease an 8x8 baker and pour in the fruit mixture. Use your hands to crumble the oat mixture on top.  Bake at 375 covered for 20 minutes and then uncovered for another 20. Be sure to check the crumble during that last 20 minutes so you don't burn your topping. It is ready when the fruit is bubbly and the oat/nut topping is nicely browned.
