This is so very good. I never made a blackberry crisp before this recipe. My hubby loved it! Simple and very pretty to take to an event. I too added some oats for texture and cut back the sugar- to taste. Such a yummy treat. :) You won't be sorry!

Too much sugar in filling and in topping. Sickly sweet and believe me, I like sweet. I suggest adding half of the sugar for filling and then adjust to your liking. Topping: Cut sugar in half and once again taste. I added 1/2 c oats to topping which was perfect--cook longer if you do this or center of crisp will be wet.

WOW....this is SOOOOOOOOOO good!!! I did make a couple changes...I added 1/2 cup rolled oats & a couple teaspoons of cinnamon to the topping & I didn't melt the butter...I cut it in, instead. Other than that, GREAT!!! THANKS for sharing!!!
