Fruit Crisp for a Crowd or a Couple

Or maybe for a couple of couples, or a couple for a couple of days... This Fruit Crisp will become the 'go-to' recipe for a quick dessert for our Community LinC group meal and for my family dinners. Using canned pie filling it goes together well and the filling is already thickened so the consistency is just right.

Fruit Crisp (for a 8-inch by 10-inch pan)

2 cans pie filling (apple, peach and cherry are all good)

1 1/2 cups quick oats

1 1/2 cup flour

1 1/2 cups brown sugar

1 1/2 sticks butter (3/4 cup)

1/4 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. baking soda

1 tsp. cinnamon (or other flavoring according to 

    the pie filling flavor - ex: almond for cherry)

Grease pan, and put both cans of pie filling in.

Melt butter and mix with remaining ingredients. 

Spread over top of fruit pie filling. 

Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. 

See, isn't that easy? For a smaller family size dessert, use a 8-inch x 8-inch pan and 1 can of pie filling and half the other ingredients (3/4 cup each of quick oats, flour, brown sugar, butter, and 1/8 tsp of baking powder and baking soda, 1/2 tsp flavoring).

Spread over top of fruit filling

Bake and serve!
