  3. c. In a separate bowl, mix 3/4 cup of boiling water, ⅓ cup of all-purpose flour, and fresh lemon juice to create a thick sauce.
  4. d. Pour the lemon sauce over the black raspberry mixture and stir gently to combine.

  1. a. In a medium bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, salt, rolled oats, and cinnamon.
  2. b. Drizzle the melted unsalted butter over the dry ingredients.
  3. c. Use a fork to mix the ingredients until the mixture forms crumbly clusters.
Assemble the Crisp:

Bake the Crisp:
  1. a. Place the assembled crisp in the preheated oven.
  2. b. Bake for a specific amount of time (not provided in the ingredient list) until the filling is bubbling, and the topping turns golden brown.

Notes

Mix the crumble topping ingredients thoroughly for even texture.
Adjust sugar quantity in the filling based on berry sweetness.
Add a pinch of nutmeg to enhance the flavor profile.
Use fresh lemon zest for a tangy twist in the filling.
Preheat the oven adequately for consistent baking.
Cover the crisp with foil halfway through baking to avoid excessive browning.
Serve the crisp warm for the best taste and texture.
