Inspired by the
Greek version of baklava, this crisp is brimming with tart berries, warm spices, orange and lemon juice and zest, honey, and walnuts. To stay true to the Greek theme, we used olive oil instead of butter in the topping. For the mixed berries, we opted for a blend of strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries, but any combination will work.
The berries don’t need to be thawed before using, and the topping can be assembled and frozen in a freezer-safe bag up to 1 week in advance. If you make the topping ahead, there’s no need to thaw it before baking; plus, it can be stored for up to 3 months. This makes it a great make-ahead dessert with minimal prep that you can whip up at a moment’s notice. Top with whipped cream for the ultimate summer treat.
