Question 1

Can I use frozen blackberries to make crisp?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Frozen fruit works great in crisps and is a great solution when fresh blackberries are not available.

Make sure to thaw and drain the fruit to remove excess liquid.

Question 2

Why is my crisp runny?

Accepted Answer

Depending on the juiciness of your fruit and the depth of the dish you cooked your crisp in, sometimes it can be a little extra juicy.

If you prefer less juice, cook the crisp in a shallower dish such as a 10-inch cast iron pan or a 9x13 casserole.

Make sure to let your crisp cool before serving, which will help thicken the juices.

Another method is to toss the fruit mixture with 2 tablespoons of cornstarch. Make sure there are no clumps; sifting the cornstarch over the berries will help.

You can also cook the crisp for 10-15 minutes longer to help cook off the extra juices.

Question 3

Can I make crisp nut-free?

Accepted Answer

If you prefer to make blackberry crisp without nuts, simply replace the nuts with an equal amount of rolled oats.
