Ingredients
Scale
- 6 cups fresh blackberries
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.

- Pour the blackberry mixture into the prepared baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, combine the cold butter, rolled oats, 1/2 cup flour, brown sugar, and salt. Use your fingers or a pastry blender to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

- Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For a richer topping, add a pinch of nutmeg to the oat mixture.

- You can use frozen blackberries; no need to thaw them first.
- Adjust the sugar based on the sweetness of your blackberries.
