The charm of this simple dessert is obvious: It takes sweet summer fruits and cooks them down so that everything good about them becomes even better.
For filling
- 1 1/2 lb purple plums, cut into 1/2-inch wedges
- 1 cup blueberries (5 oz)
- 1 cup blackberries (5 oz)
- 1/3 to 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar (depending on sweetness of fruit)
For topping
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
- 1/2 stick unsalted butter, cut into bits and softened
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
-
Preheat oven to 425ºF with rack in upper third.
-
Toss together all filling ingredients in a 2-quart shallow baking dish and bake 10 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, blend together all topping ingredients in a bowl with your fingertips until butter is evenly distributed and mixture is crumbly.
-
Stir fruit filling, then sprinkle oat mixture over it and bake until topping is crisp and golden and fruit is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
