I can’t believe it’s the end of June already! With all the fresh fruit available I made this gorgeous Slow Cooker Light Berry Crisp. Yes it’s healthy recipe, and couldn’t be any easier to boot. I used 5 cups of fresh berries, a squeeze of lemon juice, then for the topping I used my favorite granola. I did not add any sugar. Why you ask? Because I knew I was going to top this beauty with low-fat ice cream, I love Dreyer’s half the fat French Vanilla, which compliments the tart berries perfectly.
Such a perfect dessert for summer time. Light and fresh, with no guilt! I actually saved a bowl of this and at it for breakfast the next day (without ice cream!)

Yum!!!! That looks delicious and I bet it smelled heavenly!
You know that fat doesn’t make you fat, right? It’s sugar that does that. So why eat lowfat ice cream?
Makes sense since I’ve been losing weight non stop since I’ve stopped drinking sugary drinks. 🙂
too much fat in your diet is also not healthy. Especially if it isn’t healthy fat. So why does it matter to you what kind of ice cream she eats.
The only unhealthy fat is man-made “trans” and “hydrolyzed” crap.
Can you use frozen berries?
I don’t see why not!
Do you think regular oats would work instead of granola? Thanks!
It may, you would need to add some flavoring.
Can this be saved for later?
How much is a serving size?
Has anyone made this with just blue berries?
