My Summer Berry Crisp is sweet, fresh, insanely easy to make, and so yummy! In addition to the tasty, syrupy berries, the ground almond topping provides a bold and different flavor to this classic crisp. Although the combination of fruits I used is delicious, you can use whatever berries you have in the house so you can try different combinations every time you make it.

Skillet Cherry Crisp

My Skillet Cherry Crisp is a classic cherry crisp with a special ingredient that will take your crisp from good to great. To make it better, it is baked in a cast-iron skillet meaning once you cook the cherries on the stove, you can add the topping and bake it in the same dish with makes clean-up so much easier.

Simple Rhubarb Crisp

You may have heard of rhubarb in combination with strawberries, but what you may not know is that it is great in recipes on its own. Rhubarb can be sour but when mixed with the sugar in this recipe, the results are slightly sweet, slightly tart, and absolutely delicious. This Simple Rhubarb Crisp is the perfect crisp for anyone who doesn’t have a huge sweet tooth.

Crock Pot Apple & Blueberry Crisp

If you’re busy but still want a yummy, summer dessert, look no further than my Crock Pot Apple & Blueberry Crisp. As the name says, this dessert is made entirely in a Crock-Pot so you can make it in the morning and let it cook all day without worrying about it. Trust me, even if you have the time to make an oven-baked crisp, this is equally as delicious and is definitely worth making.

Unforgettable Blackberry Crisp

This Blackberry Crisp is as delicious as it is unusual. Although there is an apple in this crisp to aid the syrupy texture, the blackberries are the real star of the show. They make a surprisingly great base for a crisp and when paired with a flavorful hazelnut topping, they make a surprisingly great pairing that you may not expect.

Microwave Mug Apple Crisp

Have you ever craved apple crisp but didn’t want to make a whole crisp? If so, this recipe is for you. My Microwave Mug Apple Crisp is cooked entirely in a mug and makes a single-serving version of this classic treat that can be ready in less than 10 minutes from start to finish. The only downside to this recipe is that you won’t have leftovers, but it’s so easy and quick to make you can just make a new one whenever you want it!

Caramel Apple Crisp With Cinnamon Ice Cream

I think my Caramel Apple Crisp With Cinnamon Ice Cream is the definition of Bigger Bolder Baking. It takes a classic recipe such as apple crisp and elevates it by adding caramel and topping it with homemade cinnamon ice cream. I dare you to name a better end-of-summer/fall dessert.
