Blackberry Crisp

This weekend on our berry picking adventure we picked 7 pounds of blueberries and blackberries. I really didn't think we had that much until we got home and put them in bowls; 7 pounds really is a lot. But boy o boy, they are GOOD! Nothing beats fresh the taste of fresh picked berries!! Saturday night we used some of the blackberries to make a Blackberry Crisp. It was SUPER EASY & SUPER DELICIOUS! A perfect dessert for summer. I am sure you could make this with any berry, or even better a berry mixture!
