Often, if I make dessert, my true intention behind it is so that we can eat the leftovers for breakfast the following day. I put many bags of berries into the freezer this past summer when the prices were low and it’s been fun to use them to freshen up our winter meals. We recently made this crisp—which features far less butter and sugar than standard recipes, making it a great toddler treat—and the whole family loved it.

This crisp is only lightly sweetened, so it’s a healthy dessert to share with the littles.
