1.5 quarts fruits assorted trimmed chopped (such as blueberries, raspberries, peaches, plums, or cherries)
1 teaspoon lemon zest (from)
0.3 cup brown sugar light packed
0.3 cup quick-cooking oats
1 pinch salt
0.5 cup sugar
4 tablespoons butter unsalted cold cut into small pieces ()
0.3 cup walnuts chopped
Equipment
bowl
baking sheet
oven
ramekin
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Place six ramekins on a baking sheet and set aside.
In a large bowl, gently toss together the fruit, sugar, and lemon zest and let rest for 5 minutes.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, oats, salt, brown sugar, walnuts, and butter. Using your hands or a spoon, gently toss to blend the ingredients and then rub the mixture together to work the butter into walnut-size lumps.
Divide the fruit between the ramekins, gently packing it down. Divide the oat and walnut streusel topping between the ramekins, packing a hearty mound on top of each.
Bake the fruit crisps until the streusel is golden brown, 18 to 20 minutes.
