- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In an 8x8 inch baking dish, combine 4 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, etc.), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Gently toss to coat.
- Stir in 1/4 cup orange juice until evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups rolled oats, 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup packed brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, and 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces. Use a pastry blender or your fingers to combine until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

- Let cool slightly before serving. Top with a dollop of low-fat frozen yogurt or ice cream for an extra touch of deliciousness!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
