Individual Berry Crisps
When berries are plentiful in the markets, I love making these Individual Berry Crisps to highlight their sweet deliciousness!
Berry Crumbles are a delicious summer dessert. Serve them warm with some vanilla ice cream and just wait for the swooning to start.
Mixed Berry Crisps
Making a pie is often time-consuming, not to mention daunting. I’ve messed up too many pie crusts to mention. Granted, they usually taste yummy, but not what I’d want to serve to company. Crisps are pretty much foolproof. Plus making them in ramekins is a terrific presentation, creating individual berry crisps for each of your guests.
Easy Summer Dessert
These mini berry crisps are a snap to prepare. Just head to your favorite farmers’ market, produce stand or grocery store and pick up 4 cups of the ripest seasonal berries you can find. I love using a mixture of luscious raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries. Gently toss the berries with sugar and cornstarch and divide between ramekins.
I love using these mini red cocottesfrom Le Crueset. But you’re more likely to have 6 or 8-ounce ramekins in your kitchen. Either will work fine. Sprinkle with a simple brown sugar butter streusel, bake, and voila, dessert is served! Make sure the filling is hot and bubbly to ensure the cornstarch works its thickening magic.

How to Serve a Berry Crisp
Serve warm with vanilla or another complimentary ice cream. A few seconds in the microwave will heat each berry crisp up nicely. There’s nothing better than melting ice cream on a warm dessert!
These triple berry crisps are the perfect salute to summer! Indulging in a berry crumble will certainly delight your taste buds!

A delicious mix of berries topped with a brown sugar crisp
Ingredients
Berry Filling:
- 4 cups berries (I used fresh blueberries, fresh raspberries, and fresh blackberries)

- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Topping:
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, cut into small pieces
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350º.
- Gently mix berries with sugar and cornstarch. Divide between 4 8-ounce ramekins.
- Make topping by combining flour, brown sugar, and butter. With fingers, press, break apart and work in butter until topping resembles cornmeal. Sprinkle evenly over the four ramekins.
- Place ramekins on baking sheet and bake for 35-45 minutes, until the filling bubbles and the topping is browned. Cool slightly, then serve with vanilla ice cream.

Who can resist a buttery brown sugar crumb topping? Not me!
Comfort desserts like this one are always the best!!
Love hos you presented it too! Can’t wait to try this recipe!
For the first time in my life David ate every single one of my apple crisps…So I’m definitely inspired to try your berry crisps =) P.s. Glad I’m not the only who can be pie crust challenged.
I have been looking for an individual crisp recipe…. I love being able to serve bite sized treats! Pinning!
Love crisps, I’m with you pie crusts are so hit and miss and let’s face it pastry can be a bit boring crisp topping is much better.
You hit the nail on the head when you said crisps are fool-proof. Serving them in individual ramekins is a nice way to gussy them up a bit also.
Love the idea of portion control though am not sure I can prevent myself from having seconds! 🙂
I love these berry crisps especially in your little cast iron casserole dishes. How perfect!
What a beautiful recipe. I love the beautiful fruit and crisps are my favorite!
This looks like the perfect summer dessert!
I love berries! Its vibrant color makes every dessert delectable.
Definitely one of the best and easiest desserts!
These look gorgeous, Liz! Berry crisps are one of my favorite baked desserts! The individual servings are the perfect size!!
Individually treats are always the BEST. Everyone gets the fair share that way, plus they look so cute! Love berries and crisps. Perfect for breakfast. Also loving your red cocottes, I also have the same! 😉
A favorite dessert! These are so cute!
I love mixed berries in cobblers and crisps, etc. These look delicious! And what a great idea to bake them in individual dishes. I love having a little dessert all to myself. LOVE those red cocottes!
What beautiful little crisps, sounds really delish! This looks really irresistible. Gorgeous photo Liz
Every week I think about how I need to whip up a crisp as it has been so long, but I never get around to it. I’m going to consider this the final push I need!
Great dessert! Looks so delicious!
