Here is a berry crisp that is full of mixed berries and a perfect fruit dessert or breakfast! Low in points if you are on Weight Watchers and can be made year-round!
My Berry crisp recipes is so refreshing and perfect for the Spring and Summer. I love using fresh berries, sometimes we go to farms so we can pick our own. But during the offseason I usually use frozen and the recipe is still super delicious!
This berry crisp is approved for your Weight Watchers lifestyle! It’s only 2 points for a serving, and this recipe serves 6. If you change the recipe, be sure to plug it into your points calculator on the WW site to make sure you calculate the points correctly. Also, make sure you keep your berries in pieces, not liquified. If you liquefy them and make more of a pie filling, some say you will need to count points (just like if you drink a smoothie). I don’t count fruit points regardless but it’s something to keep in mind

Fage is my favorite Greek Yogurt to use
If you are using frozen berries you may need to add time to your recipe, so the sauce has time to carmelize.
