Ingredients

• 6 cups mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
• 0.5 cups granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar (for topping)
• 0.5 cups unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x9-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mixed berries with 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Toss gently to coat the berries evenly, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

Step 3

In another bowl, combine the flour, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and salt. Add the cold, cubed butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the vanilla extract to the crumble mixture and stir just until combined. The mixture should still be somewhat crumbly but start holding together when pinched.

Step 5

Sprinkle the shortbread topping over the berry mixture evenly, ensuring the surface is mostly covered but with a few gaps for the fruit to bubble through.

Step 6

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the berry filling is bubbling.

Step 7

Remove the crumble from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to thicken slightly.

Step 8

Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream for an extra indulgent treat.
