Ingredients

For the streusel topping:

  • 1 cup (180g) brown sugar
  • 1 cup (125g) all-purpose ("plain") flour
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, diced

For the berry mixture:

  • 3 cups (600g) frozen mixed berries, such as blueberry, raspberry, and blackberry
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup (55g) regular granulated sugar
  • Optional for perfume: 1/2 teaspoon rose water

Instructions

Making the streusel topping:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Tip the brown sugar, flour, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. Stir briefly to combine. Add the diced butter. Use your fingers to mash the butter into the flour to achieve a crumbly mixture. Set aside.

Preparing the berry mixture:

  • Pour the berries, flour, cornstarch, and sugar into a large bowl. Toss to coat. Stir in the optional rose water.

Baking - about 45 minutes

  • Transfer the berries to a 2-quart baking dish, and top them with the streusel mixture. Bake until the juices are thick and bubbling -- about 45 minutes. Cool briefly on a wire rack. Serve warm or at room temperature (or even cold from fridge) with or without vanilla ice cream.
