Steps:
- Mix all ingredients except for instant oatmeal or kashi go lean crunch cereal into a 9x9 microwave safe glass casserole dish and microwave for 15 minutes stirring every 5 minutes.
- Take out of microwave after 15 minutes and let stand for a few moments until slightly cooled and beginning to thicken, then top with your choice of kashi go lean crunch cereal or instant oatmeal.
- (just a note - if you choose the oatmeal you may wish to brown it in the oven on broil for a few moments so that it doesn't get instantly soggy - to do this, mix it with some butter and pour onto top of fruit mixture,then put into oven on middle rack and check on regularly until it crisps up nice and golden brown.
- The Kashi is nice if you wish to serve it right away (kashi doesn't re-microwave very nicely so only use if you are eating that same night or re-heat in the oven the next day for a hot dish).
- Add cream or milk and enjoy!

Tips:
- Use a variety of fruits. This will give your crisp a more complex flavor and texture. Some good combinations include apples and pears, peaches and blueberries, or strawberries and rhubarb.
- Don't overcook the fruit. You want it to be tender but still hold its shape. If you overcook it, it will become mushy and the crisp will be less enjoyable.
- Use a combination of oats, flour, and sugar for the topping. This will give the crisp a nice crunchy texture. You can also add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or ginger to the topping for extra flavor.
- Bake the crisp until the topping is golden brown and the fruit is bubbling. This usually takes about 30 minutes. If you're using a glass baking dish, you may need to bake it for a few minutes longer.
- Serve the crisp warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or whipped cream. This is the perfect way to enjoy this classic dessert.
Conclusion:
Fruit crisps are a delicious and easy way to use up fresh fruit. They're perfect for a quick dessert or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious fruit crisp that everyone will love.
