Ingredients
- 4 cups mixed berries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice

- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
