Happy late fourth of July! We spent the fourth at Coney Island watching the hot dog eating competition. In case you missed it, Joey Chestnut beat his old record by eating 69 hot dogs in 10 minutes. It was very exciting to witness history. Michael was a close contender by downing 3 whole Nathan's hot dogs (see below); very impressive.
After we came home from Coney Island we had a couple of friends over so I thought I would make a fourth of July treat. I doubled my apple crisp recipe and substituted the apples for strawberries and blueberries. It turned out really well. It's amazing how this recipe really works with various fruits that are in season throughout the year and it's so easy!
Ingredients
Enough berries to cover an 8x8 baking dish (when I double the recipe I use a 13x9 in pan shown above)
1/3 cup rolled oats
1/3 cup oat bran (can sub with flour of your choice)
2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup chopped pecans (or just buy pecan pieces if you don't want to chop or use a food processor)
Line the baking dish with the berries. Mix all ingredients besides the berries in a medium sized bowl. Evenly sprinkle the crumble mixture on top of the berries. Bake for about 25 minutes at 400 degrees or until the fruit is bubbling and the top begins to brown. Serve with ice cream, cool whip, or plain.
Enjoy!
