I’m always a fan of a fruit dessert, but I don’t always want to fuss with a pie crust. That’s where a good cobbler or crisp comes in!
This easy mixed berry crisp gives you that warm, baked-fruit goodness with only about 10 minutes of prep time.
The crumbly topping is easy to pull together, so it’s the kind of dessert you can still manage even when you’re short on time.
It’s handy when you have fresh berries that need to be used up before they go bad, or you can use a bag of frozen mixed berries, too.
The berries bake into a juicy, sweet filling beneath a golden topping made with Bisquick, old-fashioned oats, and pecans.
The oats give it a little chew, and the pecans add crunch. If you need to leave out the nuts, just add some extra oats in their place.
You can serve this berry crisp warm with vanilla ice cream or let it cool while everyone finishes supper. A little whipped cream is good, too, especially once it’s cooled and the berry filling has had time to thicken.
This is a keeper recipe for when you have last-minute company coming over or you need to bring a dessert to a gathering. But it’s also easy enough to make on a regular weeknight when you want something sweet!

Prepare the berries. First, you’ll combine berries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Mix gently to coat the berries, then transfer the berry mixture into a greased baking dish.
Prepare the topping. Then, you’ll combine Bisquick, oats, pecans, and melted butter. Stir to form a crumbly dough. Sprinkle clumps of the topping mixture evenly over the fruit mixture in the baking dish.
Bake and serve. Then, you’ll bake in preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until filling is nice and bubbly and the topping is golden-brown.
Remove the crisp from the oven and let it cool for about 10-15 minutes, which will give the filling a chance to thicken up a bit. Then you can serve it warm or allow it to cool completely–it’s up to you!
Notes and Adaptations:
- This can be served warm or at room temperature, though I personally prefer it warm (with a scoop of ice cream or whipped cream on top!).
- Leftovers should be covered and refrigerated for up to 2-3 days.
- Feel free to omit the pecans if you need a nut-free dessert. You can add 1/4 cup more oats if preferred.
- If using frozen mixed berries, I’d recommend adding an extra tablespoon of cornstarch, since frozen berries often release more juices. You may also need to increase the bake time by 5-10 minutes.
