Plum Berry Crisp

FOR FILLING:

1 1/2 pounds purple plums -- cut into 1/2-inch wedges

1 cup blueberries

1 cup blackberries

1/3 cup light brown sugar -- or more, depending on sweetness of fruit, packed

FOR TOPPING:

1 cup rolled oats

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1/3 cup light brown sugar -- packed

2 ounces unsalted butter -- cut into bits and softened

1/4 teaspoon salt

Preheat oven to 425°F with rack in upper third.

Toss together all filling ingredients in a

2-quart shallow baking dish and bake 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, blend together all topping ingredients

in a bowl with your fingertips until butter is

evenly distributed and mixture is crumbly.

Stir fruit filling, then sprinkle oat mixture

over it and bake until topping is crisp and

golden and fruit is bubbling, about 30 minutes.
