The other day, a neighbor invited us over to pick blackberries from her patch. Here is what I decided to make:Blackberry Thyme Crisp
Filling:
1 quart fresh blackberries
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
2-3 tbsp sugar (use more if berries are more tart)
4-5 sprigs thyme, leaves removed from stems
juice from 1 lemon
Topping:
1 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2cup brown sugar
1 stick butter, melted
1/4 tsp. salt
Combine filling ingredients gently so as not to break up the berries, and put into small baking dish. Combine all topping ingredients, and cover the berries in the baking dish
Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes, until the top is browned nicely and the filling is deliciously bubbly. Serve as is, or with ice cream.

You're a berry picking maniac! It's totally addicting, huh? We have some wild blackberries across the street from our house- maybe we'll have to give this a try.
Last night I made the same thing, only with half huckleberries and half blueberries. Delicious. I like the thyme in it a lot. I use fresh lemon-thyme from the garden.
