A simple and delicious summer dessert featuring juicy nectarines and tart blueberries topped with a crunchy oat mixture. Quick to prepare and perfect for warm evenings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium nectarines, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice, freshly squeezed
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup rolled oats (old-fashioned preferred)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine sliced nectarines, blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, and all-purpose flour. Toss gently until fruit is evenly coated.
  3. Transfer the fruit mixture to an 8×8-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly in a single layer.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix rolled oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour in melted butter and stir until oats are thoroughly coated and clumpy.
  5. Sprinkle the oat topping evenly over the fruit.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling around the edges.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.

Notes

If topping browns too fast, tent with foil for last 10 minutes. Toss frozen blueberries with flour to prevent sogginess. Let crisp cool before serving to thicken juices. Variations include adding nuts or shredded coconut to topping, swapping fruits seasonally, and using almond flour for gluten-free.
