This recipe is great for using up those berries straight from the farm stand throughout the summer. It’s like a personal berry pie, but so much easier. You can also make this crumble with only one kind of berry if that’s easier. Serve it warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream—or both!
MAKES 4 MINI SLICES
PREP TIME: 10 minutes, plus 5 to 10 minutes to macerate the berries
COOK TIME: 30 minutes
BAKE: 350°F
1 cup fresh mixed berries
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
⅓ cup old-fashioned oats
¼ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup light brown sugar
4 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
1 . Wash the berries, and pat them dry with a paper towel.
2 . In a small bowl, toss the berries with the sugar and cornstarch. Let them macerate for 5 to 10 minutes.
3 . In a food processor or small blender, combine the oats, flour, brown sugar, and butter cubes, and pulse until the mixture resembles crumbs.
4 . Divide the macerated berries with juices between two mini pie pans, about 4 inches each.
5 . Spoon the crumb mixture over the top of the berries.
6 . Bake one at a time in the air fryer for 15 minutes each, until the topping is golden and the berries are bubbling, and serve.
Ingredient tip: You can use frozen berries for this as well; just be sure to thaw them first so the mixture doesn’t become too wet. Make sure your butter is very cold, right out of the refrigerator, and cut it into half-inch cubes.
