raspberry crisp74

Raspberry Crisp Recipe

by Melissa Ray Davis

This is my special recipe for crisp. The topping is crumbly but still chewy, pleasantly sweet, the oats add a great texture, and it melts just a little during baking to make a delicious gooey layer with the fruit underneath. But the true star of this show is the raspberries, of course; their zing is the perfect balance to the sweet topping. published 8 months ago
