About

Fruit crisps and crumbles are the quintessence of home-style desserts. You can use any combination of fruits that please you—blueberries, of course, but also plums, peaches, etc.—and they’re easy and fast to make. My current favorite is blackberries scented with a little candied ginger, topped with oatmeal-brown sugar streusel and vanilla ice cream or cinnamon-spiced whipped cream.
