Wholesome Berry Crisp
"You will enjoy this delicious, fruity dessert even more when you know it is made without refined sugar or flour! Instead, it's sweetened with honey and apple juice, and uses fiber-rich whole grains as the crunchy complement to ripe summer fruit. Recipe is from Light and Tasty’s June/July 2005 issue: I am definitely going to try this one soon."

Good for you and tastes great! Best when served after baking, when topping is crisp. I didn't have raspberries so I used well drained crushed pineapple instead.

My most important characteristic is this: I am a child of God through the gracious work of Jesus Christ!
I love to be with my family and friends. Interests? Writing, reading, cooking, dancing, teaching, splashing in puddles...I am an English teacher, wannabe children's author, and a bit of a health nut...and I can't stand high pitched squeaky noises.
