Ingredients
- 4-5 cups blackberries, rinsed and patted dry
- 1/3 cup sugar
- zest of 1 lemon
- 2 teaspoons corn starch
- 2 cups flour
- 2 cups oats
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 1 1/2 cups butter
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9x13 baking dish or individual ramekins.
- Measure sugar into a mixing bowl. Add the lemon zest, then use a fork to moosh them together. Stir in the corn starch, then add the blackberries and combine well. Pour the blackberries into your prepared baking dish or ramekin.
- Combine flour, brown sugar, and oats in a large mixing bowl. Cut the butter in until the mixture is combined and in little crumbles. It's easiest to do when the butter isn't super soft--room temperature or just a bit cooler works best.
- Cover the blackberries with the crumbly topping, then bake for about 45 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly. NOTE: My oven cooks fast I've discovered, so I start with 35 minutes and go from there. But I've had other ovens that took the full 45 minutes!*See recipe notes for the recipe that serves 2.

1 T. sugar
1/2 tsp. cornstarch
