Blackberry Mango Crisp
I’ve been on a mango kick lately. They’re beautiful and cheap at my grocery store right now and I can’t seem to get enough. I enjoy mangoes mostly on their own or in a smoothie, but a mango crisp recipe has been brewing in the back of my mind for months. When a box of mangoes landed on my doorstep, pushing my household mango supply over the edge, I knew it was time to give one a try.
Crisps are an ideal summer dessert. You can use plentiful in-season fruit, they are super easy, and come together very quickly. I love a good fruit pie, but sometimes I don’t have time for all the fuss. A fruit crisp is the answer. I love the combination of mangoes and blackberries in this recipe, but don’t feel limited by it. Use whatever fruit you like, and enjoy!
Blackberry Mango Crisp
Ingredients
- ½ cup all-purpose flour (60 grams)
- ⅓ cup old fashioned rolled oats (33 grams)
- ½ cup pecans , chopped (55 grams)
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ cup unsalted butter , cold and cubed (113 grams)
- 2 lbs cubed mango (455 grams, about 2 cups)
- 2 lbs blackberries (455 grams, about 2 cups)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease 4 individual ramekins or 1 8-inch round baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, oats, pecans, salt, cinnamon, and ginger. Add the cubed butter and toss to coat. Use a pastry blender or large fork to cut the butter into the dry ingredients until the butter is roughly the size of small peas.
- Combine the mangoes and blackberries and divide amongst the ramekins or dump into the single baking dish. Cover with the crisp mixture.
- Bake until topping is golden brown and fruit is bubbling, about 25-35 minutes. Serve immediately with whipped cream or ice cream, if desired.

I have no words for this recipe…just yum! I totally agree with you: fruit pies are awesome but sometimes, especially during summer, I’m not in the mood for all that fuss. This is the perfect solution!

Thanks, Elisa!
This is so delicious looking! I have never baked with mangos, but loooove them and know this dish must be awesome!
I’ve just barely started baking with mangoes and they are amazing! Such an untapped fruit.
Yummy on looks. So great. I wanna try this.
Yum!! I just got mine last night when I got home. This looks amazing. I think I’m going to make it for a dinner party on Friday night with some homemade ice cream!
fruit bakes are so lovely and can fit in with what ever time of year it is. Even though I am in a winter at the moment; the warm baked fruits for breakfast will take the chill off these long days.
I love fruit crisps in the winter and fall too! So homey and comforting.
uh, three of my favorite things in one? We should be besties
Good thing we are besties! 🙂
I sometimes eat a mango a day for weeks at a time and it makes me the happiest ever. This dessert looks so fab; blackberries are one of my fave fruits, too!
Perfection… What a wonderful summer dessert
Me likeeeee 🙂
What a great combination. Crisps are one of my favorite desserts.
The gram weight 455 g is for 1 pound. I am going to try a variant of this Just wonder how ripe the mango should be?
The mango should be ripe but firm, not mushy. Happy baking, Paul!
There is no sugar added and it wasn’t very good. It needed more sweetness than the mango and somewhat sour blackberries offered. I made it a second time adding a little sugar to the topping and the same to the fruit mixture, I added a little flour to thicken it and some cinnamon to the topping…very tasty
