POINTS® Value: 2

Preparation Time: 15 min
Cooking Time: 15 min
Level of Difficulty: Easy
Layers of sweet berries and home-made brown-sugar oats makes a wonderful dessert. Enjoy on Independence Day or at any other festive summer gathering.

Ingredients


2 cup(s) blueberries

2 Tbsp sugar, divided
2 cup(s) strawberries, hulled and quartered
1/2 cup(s) uncooked old fashioned oats

2 Tbsp unpacked brown sugar

2 Tbsp light butter, melted

1/2 cup(s) lite whipped topping

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F.

  • In a small bowl, toss blueberries with 1 tablespoon of granulated sugar; set aside. In another small bowl, toss strawberries with remaining tablespoon of granulated sugar; set aside.

  • In a third small bowl, stir together oats, brown sugar and butter. Spread mixture in a single layer on a sheet pan; bake, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

  • Spread blueberries and strawberries in an 8 x 8-inch glass dish, alternating to create stripes. (Or prepare in individual serving bowls like we did here.) Sprinkle with oat topping, decorate with whipped topping and serve. Yields 8 servings.

Notes

  • Retain the crispness of the oat topping by sprinkling it on the fruit just before serving.
